It appears to be hanging at the point where the initial hardware configs are completed, but never dims the display and goes into multimode. The last messages displayed before the hang are: Probing for devices on the pci0 bus: configuration mode 2 allows 16 devices. chip0 rev 17 on pci0:0 chip1 rev 3 on pci0:2 That's all she wrote. From there, the system is basically locked and requires a reset via the button. If I go back to the old kernel, stuff comes back up, but the /etc stuff is for the new version and although it works I'm not sure if it's safe! I've saved the old /etc so i can go back to that just incase. First, any ideas why it's hanging? The hardware is P-90 Intel Plato board, no PCI slots are in use, 1542 SCSI controller and a 3com509 NIC. Second, are there any problems running new bins, but using an pre-SNAP kernel?
