In general, I'm using a number of comparable configuration both @home and @work. Home: Tyan Thunder K8WE, 2x270, Adaptec 29160. Work: (couple of) HP wx9300, 2x275, LSI 320. This alone should suggest a problem with the aic79xx driver and not the kernel itself. AFAICS by looking at the kernel change logs, 2.6.15/16 brought many changes to this driver. I'd suggest you do the following: Boot from rescue CD, -enable- networking, let it detect the Fedora disk. Chroot into it. Now, "yum update" to the latest kernel. Try booting. If it doesn't work: Boot again from the rescue CD, follow the procedure. -However-, this time enabled the update-testing repo in /etc/yum.repo.d. There's a new 2.6.16 kernel in -testing... hopefully it'll work. BTW, did FC4 work? Gilboa
