The three things which I could think of which might be different than many machines would be. 1) 64-bit 2) vmware server installed 3) raid install /etc/fstab /md0/bin /bin none rw,exec,rbind /md0/sbin /sbin none rw,exec,rbind /md0/lib /lib none rw,exec,rbind /md0/lib32 /lib32 none rw,exec,rbind /md0/lib64 /lib64 none rw,exec,rbind /md0/opt /opt none rw,exec,rbind /md0/usr /usr none rw,exec,rbind /md0/var /var none rw,exec,rbind /md0/home /home none rw,exec,rbind /md0/data /data none rw,exec,rbind /md0/s /s none rw,exec,rbind Maybe somehow the install is going to /md0 but something is looking for the nvidia driver before the mount? That doesn't really make sense to me since normally I can change the driver, modprobe the driver and restart X and everything is fine.
