Product: Installation
Component: hardware
Summary: Installation locks up on system with dual Athlon mobo
with no pro in socket 0
Version: 1.791
Platform: PC
OS/Version: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: blocker
Priority: P2
AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
I attempted to install the latest mandrake 9.1 beta (RC1) on a system with an
ASUS A7M266-D motherboard (identity string: 04/11/2002 AMD760MP-A7M266-D).
The board was configured with a single AMD athlon MP1900+ processor IN SLOT 1
rather that 0--didn't even notice the difference when I installed it!
Pressing "enter" at the first prompt after booting from disk1 of the ISO image
gave a blank screen.
After a few moments I rebooted, and this time chose to press F1. This time I
entered "text" at the boot prompt and was presented with a screenful of:
APIC error on CPU0:04(04)
hence my assumption that putting the chip into socket 0 rather than 1 should
fix the problem (and hopefully not break anything else)..!
Hope this is enough detail...
