It might help us narrow down the bug at > least. Your assumption was right, interesting! With CONFIG_SpARSEMEM=y my G5 boots up just fine (dmesg attached). I did set CONFIG_FLATMEM=y in the .config as it's a G5 11,2 with a Dual-Core 970MP, not Dual-CPU as the G5 7,3. So I saw no point in using SpARSEMEM as it's a single-CPU machine. Regards, Erhard
