[ 4.724122] ACPI Error: Region IPMI (ID=7) has no handler (20110623/
exfldio-292)
Workaround There is no functionality loss. This issue will be fixed in a future release of SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 11.
Cause This feature is enabled in BIOS as per ACPI 4.0 specifications. Platforms that require IPMI Opregion enabled in
BIOS for Power Meter usage display the ACPI error messages. The kernel does not have handlers to support the
methods in IPMI Opregion.
IPv6 LUN discovery fails on SUSE Linux Enterprise Server
11 SP3
Description Booting the system through iSCSI fails when it is configured over IPv6 with Broadcom 57840 adapter. The
installation of SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 11 SP3 on iSCSI LUN is successful but does not boot the system
through LUN after the first reboot.
Workaround This issue will be fixed in a future release of SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 11.
Cause This issue occurs only when the iSCSI LUN is configured to boot using IPv6. The IPv6 module (ipv6.ko) is missing
in the initrd that is created during OS installation. This causes the IPv6 module to fail as the module is not loaded
during the first system boot when system tries to start the LUN discovery using IPv6.

trampoline and redirects to the UEFI boot menu.
Workaround This issue can be ignored because there is no functionality loss.
