When I boot on the cd, and choose 'default' in the bootloader - I get the following error message - followed by a panic: acpi: bad RSDP checksum (182) NMI ISA D0, EISA ff RAM parity error, likely hardware failure. and the panic. The server has been running fine for a long time with linux. I have tried re-seating the RAM blocks - and I have also succeeded in starting a linux installation. Any ideas ? (Besides getting some new hardware) /mich
