I have the following HW that I am hoping to use in a compute cluster.
MB: Tyan Tomcat K8S(S2850G2N) RAM: 1GB - DDR 2700 via 2 - 512MB modules CPU: AMD Opteron 146 Video: Built in ATI Rage HD: Maxtor 80GB 7200 RPM IDE ULTRA ATA133
I have successfully loaded the i386 version Fedora Core 1 using a boot floppy, a network floppy and an http shared mirror of the fedora distribution.
Now I am trying to install the x86_64 version using an ATAPI DVD drive I have temporarily connected to the secondary IDE on the system. When I
boot
from CDROM I get
boot: Loading vmlinux Loading initrd.img............ Ready.
Try "linux apci=off iommu=off".
Same result. Thanks for trying.
You might also try playing with the iommu, and acpi settings in the bios. Of I could be completely on the wrong track. I've only used the 2881, and 2882 tyan amd64 boards.
