This may not be any help, but this just came through Cooker Bug, and I don't see that anyone mentioned kernel boot parameters. NOTE his *last* sentence: http://qa.mandrakesoft.com/show_bug.cgi?id=5821 ------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2003-11-18 18:39 ------- I'm having the same problem (freezing during boot when ACPI is enabled) on a Toshiba Satellite 5105 installing from the PowerPack 9.2 DVD. Unfortunatly, the nolapic option didn't work for me. I'm relatively new to kernel options, so I may be applying incorrectly. I added "nolapic" to my append list in lilo.conf and then ran lilo, but it still freezes. Are there any other options to get this working? I think it's also causing other things to go wrong with my machine, like the sound not working. My sound didn't work with 9.1 until I enabled ACPI, then like magic, it was fine. -- _ ( ) ASCII ribbon campaign against HTML e-mail x registered Linux user # 329428 / \ GnuPG KeyID 6B5A70DF www.keyserver.net
