2.6.18 will not boot on Intel D954nt motherboard.

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Linux 2.6.11 is the last release that will boot on my Intel D945Gnt
motherboard (Pentium 4) with a Nvidia Video Card and a generic ethernet
card.

Up thru 2.6.16 The boot completed (with errors) but you could not get
to the ethernet card.

With 2.6.18 the boot totally fails (see below)
HOPEFULLY this more serious failure mode will lead to a fix to this problem.
As noted, everything is fine up thru 2.6.11 ...
