Hmmm... I guess I would try Fedora. I don't know much about the IBM linux scene but when I think IBM, somehow or rather RHEL always pops up as an association, so I guess for a POWER6, maybe fedora as as far as I know CentOS doesn't exist for it. Just glancing at the release notes, there is some mention that fedora 12 has been 'installed and tested' on POWER5 and 6 machines but I don't exactly know what that means. Did IBM help you out here at all? I dunno if you know someone there, maybe they can tell you what specific flavour of linux they recommend (?RHEL - I have no idea how much this costs though). Other things I guess, you may have already tried - checking the install medium, checking the hardware, swapping round / minimising hardware present, trying to see if you can track the boot to where exactly it fails etc... Other than that I have no ideas unfortunately - I am not sure how the installer actually runs and what it expects to be honest as it installed my YDL with no problems (PS3 / x86 guy here). > Somsak Sriprayoonsakul R Spykerman -- chown -R us ./base _______________________________________________ yellowdog-general mailing list - [email protected] Unsuscribe info: http://lists.fixstars.com/mailman/listinfo/yellowdog-general HINT: to Google archives, try '<keywords> site:us.fixstars.com'
