>Description:
On Acer Altos 19000 dual processor (Orion chipset) server, installation hangs after probing devices. After quiting out of the visual configuration, the system is probed and depending on what disks are present when it attempts to access the disks the system hangs and is only able to be reset with a power cycle. I have tried installing the GENERIC kernel onto the hard disk on another machine and moving over to this one, but it made no difference. The system has a SCSI-2 2gb hard drive (that I know is good), 32mb of FPM parity memory (which I know is good), and an S3 Virge/VX PCI video card. The motherboard has an embedded AIC-7880 U/UW SCSI host. It also has 6 PCI slots, 3 EISA slots, and 2 socket8 P6/200 processors. As a side note, WindowsNT 4 installs and runs like a champ on this machine, so I believe the hardware to be good.
>How-To-Repeat:
Attempt to boot using 4.2-RELEASE or 4.3-RELEASE.
