Hello. I have an Ultra 10 here with the following problem:
I tried to install SuSE 7.3 on this machine. During installation of a package from the second CD over NFS, the whole machine crashed. As the boot loader was already installed after CD1, I tried to boot the installed system. This worked just fine up to the point after shmfs got mounted. After that the system reproduceably crashed either with the cursor not blinking any longer and stopping any keyboard interaction or with a kernel oops. After adding some debug output to the boot scripts, I found out that the crash always happens _not before_ starting boot.setup, but the first line of boot.setup is never executed. Because of that I assume, the crash happens when forking the bash that should execute boot.setup. Is this a well known problem? What do you suggest to do? - Upgrade to a more recent kernel? - Post the Oops? - Something completely different? ;-) Robert -- Robert Schiele Tel.: +49-621-181-2517 Dipl.-Wirtsch.informatiker mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
