This problem has been solved, as least in a practical sense. Repeated tries to install Etch had resulted in the boot failing as soon as grub was called. Attempts to build a system with lilo also failed. The motherboard (Abit BX133 440BX) has four IDE connectors, allowing 8 drives in total. My h

I think your CPU is perfectly suported by 2.6.8 smp kernel. So, it is possible that the boot problem is caused by any other problem (i.e. your 2.6.8 smp kernel has not built in support for your root filesystem). For example, if your root filesystem is ext3 and your kernel has compiled ext3 supp
