Hi, I had exactly the same problem when I did a reinstall, I used the kernel ".config" I got from the live CD (zcat /proc/config.gz > .config) as a base when configuring the kernel. I solved it by not using that and instead start from scratch without an initial ".config". I guess that there were some options that was conflicting. BR / P-E
