I'm putting together a system to begin experimenting with freevsd. Quite naturally, I run into a problem, even before starting with the freevsd install.. I know I've seen the answer to this one before, but searching everywhere, I can't find it.. The problem: Redhat 6.2 booting, after initial install (after CD removal) screen -- CPU: AMD AMD Athlon(tm) Processor stepping 02 Enabling fast FPU save and restore...done. Disabling CPUID Serial number...general protection fault: 0000 I know what the problem is -- the AMD, produced after the Intel/MicroSoft serial number crap does not have a serial number to disable. the kernel initilization ends up with a non-defined value, and calls address 0 because of it (stupid assembly language error, in other words).. There's a work-around for the initial bood, having something to do with "serial=1", etc. However, I do not know the exact syntax/value for either a hand boot, or the value to fix LILO with after I get the system started up.. Could someone either give me the syntax/command line options, or point me to an information source.
