Product: Installation
Component: stage1
Summary: bad EIP value, kernel panic
Version: 1.807
Platform: PC
OS/Version: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: critical
Priority: P1
AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
for the third time now, too bad this web site hates me as much as your OS.
I Have :
pentium 133
64 MB SDRAM
creative quad speed CD
d-link NIC
Diamond Stealth 3D 2000 Pro
when I initially tried install i made a boot disk, i had to of course with this
old computer, and after teh splash screen appears and it begins toward loading
the install program, it gets to either detecting or mounting hdc(cdrom) and then
i get a bad EIP error, a page full of stuff i can't interpret, kernel panic..
So i start looking on your site and 9.1 errata isn't available, so i'm looking
at 9.0 errata and see there is an updated cdrom.img file that fixes a missing
floppy.o file problem so i tried using that and it got me into installation, but
then after selecting my mouse it reports a missing file in /lib, i'm guessing
this is because it is a 9.0 not 9.1 disk, and asks me to make a new one, so then
i found the alternate cdrom image on the install cd and tried that, this time i
get to install, everything in install seems to go through flawlessly, however,
after rebooting and LILO, i get the exact same error in the exact spot as using
the original cdrom.img boot disk. I noticed with both of the other 2 disks that
it seems the floppy is next in line after hdc and figure one of those 2 is the
problem but don't know, or i wouldn't be submitting a bug hoping for a fix. I
believe that alternate image uses a different kernel and I did see that one
reported that one kernel (alt0 i believe) wouldn't install, and (alt1) the other
would install properly but not boot afterwards, however it was on an older
release and had been asked to check if it still existed, so i am going to submit
this anyways, because every other time, if i look at what it thinks might be
similar i can't submit and nothing is really similar to my problem.
