Upon reflection it occures to me that there are two other possibilities 1) The bios calls to access high memory make it so that the kernel routine to do <something> (page table setup?) reboots the machine 2) It does not get properly copied to the 1 meg location and reboots because it executes random memory during decompression. You can eliminate #2 by putting a huge for loop (delay) in arch/i386/boot/compressed/misc.c decompress_kernel (from memory) If it actually does decompress the kernel then #1 is likely, perhaps talk to the kernel people? When the line 'Uncompressing the kernel' is printed the machine is running in protected mode. Jason -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
