Either disable the controller, or pass: hde=noprobe hdg=noprobe to the kernel I completed my 9.2 iso downloads, installed, and tried out the tmb kernel, but I'm still getting the seemingly random hard lockups. I did an install from the disks, added Club, Contrib and plf sources, added the tmb kernel+source and rebooted. Sometimes it will happen after a few minutes, sometimes after a few hours, and it doesn't seem to depend on system load. I don't think it's a hardware issue, as Win2k will run for days on end without a problem, both sitting idle, downloading, working, or playing games. So I'm not sure where to look next for a fix. Any suggestions? Thanks for all of your help, Hez Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft? Go to http://www.mandrakestore.com

If you look at the changelog closely, you see that two lines above it states: - sync with 2.4.22-11mdk so that is from the main mdk kernel changelog, and it's exactly the same as I used... For my next build I'm switching to a newer libata, wich should work better and also support some promise cards... -- Regards Thomas Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?
