Hey Group;
This is the first machine that I have tried to install SuSE on that
failed on the CD boot. It failed on something just after the detection
of the HD. An error message suggested turn of ACPI and I aslo added
APIC. But the same failure. It locks up the machine and mention (as I
remember) VFS.
It is on a 4 to 5 year old Compaq Persario (SP) Pentium ? with VIIx4
chipset Another reason not to buy a HP/Compaq..
Note: he has a old SuSE 7.0 installed and it boots. There is a story
about upgrading SuSE 7.0 today.
Speaking of memories 7.0 versus 8.2.
Any clues on how to solve this problem? Even KNOPPIX fails to boot.
