Ubuntu/CentOS guest instances in VMware sometimes come up with the boot error message:

1

piix4_smbus 0000:00:007.3: Host SMBus controller not enabled!

This error is being caused because VMware doesn’t actually provide that level interface for CPU access, but Ubuntu try to load the kernel module anyway.

How to fix it:
在虚拟机中

1

sudo vim /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf

add the line:

1

blacklist i2c-piix4

reboot

似乎这个错误在centos6 + 3.10* 的内核，有时kdump不起作用。
