Thank you Will, From: "Will Saxon" <WillS@housing.ufl.edu> Date: Fri, 16 Jan 2004 22:59:54 -0500 > I have not tried 5.2-RELEASE but with 5.2RC2 on the same motherboard with dual Opteron 244's and the same memory configuration I had the same problem with ACPI causing a kernel panic when using the install CD. I was able to boot with ACPI disabled and then install the system without trouble. After than I was able to compile a new kernel with ACPI and that kernel booted correctly without panicking. I just tried another kernel without ACPI. Kernel panic after memory status didn't occur. But other one occur. Now I think, this is not amd64 problem. May be. I'll try i386 CD. > What BIOS revision do you have? Maybe we have different ones. What type of hard drive are you installing to? I am using a Western Digital Raptor connected to the onboard serial ATA, and was installing from CDROM. I'm using Rev. 1.1 BIOS. I got it from MSI Taiwan. http://www.msi.com.tw/program/support/bios/bos/spt_bos_detail.php?UID=484 If yours is 1.0, I'll try it. And my hard drive is Seagate ST3120022A(IDE 120GB). > The problem I have had is that the bge driver does not initialize the onboard bcm5705 controller. Since I have some other buggy hardware, I am now using a linux distribution for the time being. I noticed that their tg3 driver also does not initialize the controller correctly, while the (vendor supplied?) bcm5700 driver works fine. In my case, I can use network via bge...
