This doesn't help on my system. I tried both ways: using boot option with nosmp, and rebuilding kernel with SMP off in config file. Using nosmp, I got: IOAPIC [0]: Invalid reference to IRQ 0 . . audit(....) initialized ide 1 : .... id1 1 : ports already in use, skipping and system halted Rebuilding kernel with SMP off in config file, I got: Kernel panic - not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(0,0) Thanks, Dely - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
