It reports "Panic: Double fault" then does a register dump. This machine had been running 2.2.8 for a year or so with no problem. I added a new hard drive and upgraded to 3.1 about a month ago. About 3 weeks ago I started getting mysterious freeze-ups. Now the machine just flat won't boot. What is most likely to be killing me here? Am I looking at a hardware problem? Should I be suspecting the new hard drive (IBM 22 GB IDE) or the RAM? HELP! -- Daniel Mahoney dmahoney@pe.net Failure is not an option.
