Comments/Problems:
Here's an odd problem: I can get through the entire install without
any problems at all (with the beta 3 100M disc) but when I reboot
I get to the screens that ask to establish root passwords and such
and then the machine reboots.
It will continue this cycle for as long as I leave the machine on.
It just looks like some watchdog is timing out and rebooting the
machines. The length of time the machine runs before rebooting
seems to be very a very specific fixed length (like a watchdog
timer would produce).
Before you ask: No. the machine is not overheating. Yes I do know
about thermal compound and all of that. This is specifically a
debian kernel problem. This machine has run fine for the past year
and I'm only reinstalling because the hard disk started going
bad. Other than that it's a sound machine with no overclocking,
thermal or other problems.
In fact. I used a beta2 installer to reinstall the machine and
it is the same machine I used to edit and send this bug report
from.
The current beta 3 100M disk produces a system that just continually
reboots a short time (1 minute or so) after getting to login prompt
on virtual console 2 (since VC 1 is showing the firstboot setup
dialog)
