At the bootup screen, what parameters are you passing.
These have changed since SL5, and it's quite likely that an option has
changes since SL5, *especially* if it is network related.
The environment is Compaq CL1850R (dual CPUs, Compaq HW RAID
(Smart-2DH)), so I am _appending_ the following:
apm=off noapic noht nomce nousb nousbstorage pci=biosirq skipddc
pci=biosirq was added per the suggestion of the boot output on the console.
The other parameters have been in use for a long time (since FC3
IIRC), but you are correct, they may have changed.
I usually put ip=, netmask=, gateway=, and dns=, but simplified the
parameter list after the first failure.
Hi,
What happens if you don't append anything?
Just hit "enter" at the boot line without adding or removing anything.
