I have mdk 9 with the same problem, which is best described here: http://www.geocrawler.com/archives/3/35/2001/9/0/6727750/ although I have very different hardware - a Seagate 40GB drive (with their driver so my motherboard can see more than 32GB) as hda and a good old LG 40x CDROM. It locks up during the gentoo instalation, but also when trying to mount under mdk. 2.2 kernels worked just fine, without any problems. Hardware: a Biostar mainboard, Celeron 333, 64MB of RAM, drives already listed, GeForce 2 MX, SB PCI 64, an Ethernet card. TIA (hope there are some patched kernels for this... and a bootable gentoo with such :) ) -- { Marek Baczyński :: UIN 57114871 :: GG 161671 :: JID [EMAIL PROTECTED] } { http://www.vlo.ids.gda.pl/ | imbaczek at poczta fm | http://www.promode.org } .. .. .. .. ... ... ...... evolve or face extinction ...... ... ... .. .. .. .. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
