Since I'm of a rather impatient nature I must admit not having waited a full 15 Mins (more like 15 Seconds ;-) to check whether the system would come up again. But I'll try right away. > The problem was that I was using the IO-APIC. Some motherboards don't > have IO-APIC implemented as they should have. Thus I switched to > LOCAL-APIC and the problem gone away. Sadly I have no possible setting in my MB's BIOS regarding the APIC-feature, so I had to disable IO-APIC in the boot-options. The card then had IRQ 11 (before 58) assigned and the rest just seemed to work the same ways as with APIC enabled. But as soon as I dialled a number the system froze again.

But anyway I plan on setting up a serial connection and log every single byte, I swear ;-) _______________________________________________ Visdn-hackers mailing list [email protected] https://mailman.uli.it/mailman/listinfo/visdn-hackers
