Failing to install on an FIC-PA2007 mb with an AMD K6-166
product: Debian 1.3.1 CD Problem: Various halts and core dumps to the screen during the boot phase. Symtoms: When booting from thr CD the boot screen comes up ok, then pressing return the boot will abort. This is not allways in the same place. Note: if it type in rescue, then the boot will continue to the point where it tries to mount the boot partion, then fails. This is a clean system with no disk partitions on the drive at all. Also, the RedHat Linux version will get past the boot phase (but, it falls over elsewhere ... but they state that they dont support the K6). I have followed the notes on the CD, and the BIOS has all the caches turned off, and not shadowing of devices. System: Board: FIC PA-2007 - 1mb on board cache CPU:AMD K6-166 mem:32mb SDRAM HD: Quantum Fireball St2.1 CD: Toshiba 24x -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word unsubscribe to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .

It could be CPU related, but it could also have to do with other parts of your hardware. Check out http://www.bitwizard.nl/sig11/ for a list of potential causes to similar problems.
