Good day,

First off, I apologize for not using my @charter.net
address to write the list; my mail bounces due to the
mail list host not being able to resolve my ISP's
host, thus preventing the list from accepting my mail.
 Naturally, my ISP denies any problems on their part,
buy anyway...

I recently attempted to install 5.0-RELEASE on a Dell
Poweredge 600SC, and have had problems.  When the
kernel probes the hardware, I get a line stating "NMI
ISA 30, EISA ff" and a hard hang.  The only way to
recover is to reset the machine.  I am unable to
provide any further diagnostic information as I cannot
even get past the initial install.

The machine is configured as follows:
Dell 600SC
BIOS revision A04
512mb RAM
LSI Megaraid PERC3/SC SCSI host adapter
Fujitsu 36gb SCSI disc
PlexWriter 40x IDE CD-RW (Master on secondary IDE)
Lite-On DVD-ROM (Slave on secondary IDE)
ATI All In Wonder VE PCI video adapter
Sound Blaster Audigy 2 PCI sound card

Within the BIOS, the COM port, LPT port, primary and
tertiary IDE ports have been disabled as they are not
used.

This configuration had performed perfectly while
running 4.7-RELEASE and up to the most recent -STABLE.

Any pointers would be appreciated.

Thank you,
John Wilson
