Hi!
I reported this a few weeks ago. Now I tried beta1-kernel again.
Boot stops at exactly this point without error message:
"
Partition check:
/dev/ide/host0/bus0/target0/lun0: [PTBL] [2491/255/63] p1 p3 < p5 p6 p7 >

"
Someone mentioned obviously the same pb, found on ggg (Search: kernel 2.4.18
hpt partition).
Output (from 2.4.13 kernel):
