Greetings friends! Here's an interesting phenom that you may not have seen yet! During the initial boot from floppy before installation (2.0 and 2.0.5) everything begins to boot alright, but immediately after the phase the system panics with RAM parity error. Probable hardware problem. I isolated the error to our Adaptec AHA-2940W SCSI card (PCI) by removing it and booting with only a 1.44 3.5" floppy installed. The install process then begins normally. The AHC0 device is not even probed which I find odd since I was under the impression that it was included in the generic kernal distribution. Any hints/suggestions you may provide would be very helpful! Thanks in advance! -Jeremy ---------------------------------------------------------- Diclaimer goes here....etc...
