Re: cannot boot fedora FC3 after succesful installation on an quad Opteron

Hi Simon,

I had a similar problem on a Thinkpad using the 32-bit version.
It turned out to be a wrong memory module, I had a 512 MB PC2100 (266
Mhz) SO-DIMM installed and the machine needs PC2700 (333 MHz) memory.

Some times the machine booted fine only to give problems later (Kernel
panic), some times it stopped when setting the time right at the place
that you indicate.

Memtest reported the memory as ok, but maybe it's not running it at 333
MHz at the time of the test (??).

Best regards,
Chris
