I found the smartstart cd's and tried using those with "manual integration" and "linux". That didn't work, so I tried "other". That didn't work either. I left the box over night (12 hours) and found it in the same state the next day. i.e. at the kernel init, having just print acd0: Just to recap: booting with default, the kernel gets to "Timecounters tick every 10.000msec", then takes another three or so hours to get to "cd0:" where it hangs for 12 hours. when booting with single-user, ACPI disabled, or safe-mode, I get a kernel panic "Page not present"[0]. Verbose mode seems to be the same as default except, well, more verbose ;-) > vga0: <generic ISA VGA> at port ... > isa_probe_children: probing PnP devices > Device configuration finished > procfs registered Is there anything else I can try? The F10 System Partition utilties didn't want to play nicely because I couldn't provide it with a server profile diskette. R P.S. I've a very funny feeling that this is PnP BIOS issue.
