Well your message got me to look closer at the lilo parameters that the installation set and I found one oarameter acpismp=force. Removeing this did not work but it also suggested that the kernel installed was multiprocessor. I reinstalled and this time i manually selected a standard kernel with no multiprocessor support and the problem went away. thanks again Ray Suban On Friday 22 August 2003 08:14, Ramon Casha wrote: > Instructions to unsubscribe from this list at the end of the message > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > Hello Ray!!
