My machine is an Ultra60 with 2x450 procs + 512M memory I've tried rebuilding the 2.6.7 kernel several times (changing things on each iteration - for instance: rebuilding gcc, glibc, silo), and every time the machine loads silo and allocates space for the kernel, but it freezes right after printing "Booting Linux..." Once it does this, it is completely unresponsive (even to stop+a). It worked great on the 2.6 kernel a year ago when I ran gentoo the first time. Can anyone help me. Please!!
