I'm having sporatic failures to boot on an sgi750 (2x733MHz Merced) which I've recently obtained. Once the system is up, however, it's rock solid, so it doesn't seem to be a hardware problem. Also, the problem occurs whether booting from CD or booting from the hard drive. If I try to boot from the CD, the error looks like this:
CD: Uncompressing Linux... done Loading file \initrd.gz... done [ flashing cursor mocks me until i reboot ] HD: Uncompressing Linux... done Loading file \EFI\debian\initrd.gz... done [ flashing cursor mocks me until i reboot ] Only difference is the path to initrd.gz. Debian etch 4r3 and 4r4 boot cds both have the same problem. There doesn't seem to be any rhyme or reason I can discern to the failures, which occur on 1/2 to 2/3 of boots. It looks like the same problem as: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=470707 Is anyone else having this problem? I know it's a long shot to ask here, but does anyone know of a workaround for this issue or have other ideas or URLs with information besides the bug report? Thanks!
