This is listed as bug in redhat, that hasn't been resolved. Is it also = a bug here? I don't know where to look to find the kernel options, how to change them or recompile. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D89527=20 Lists that=20 ---- from bug listing ----- The BOOT and single processor 2.4.20 kernels for RedHat 9 (including the kernel on the boot disks and CD) have been compiled with the following two = options off: (All of the SMP kernels have these options enabled.) # CONFIG_X86_UP_APIC is not set # CONFIG_X86_UP_IOAPIC is not set Turning the above kernel options on and recompiling allows the machine = to boot. ---- end copy ----- Also that it applies to some other controllers as well. Could this be the same problem I'm having with FreeBSD 4.9 and 5.1 = installs? Thanks, Mike
