Hi, Thanks - I've configured that, it still happening tho, heres the error message: Sep 1 18:01:10 centauri /kernel: pid 167 (sysinstall), uid 0: exited on signal 10 (core dumped) Bus error (core dumped) I've checked, and there is *nothing* conflicting in the kernel startup, I'm not sure why it's happening, something I did notice during boot - many times when it's detected a device it said something like: device port: 0x300 irq ?? I can't remember exactly how it looked, perhaps there's someway I can put the system boot to a file? Thank you very much for your help, Quintin.
