           Summary: 9.2 froze on K6-2 - 'Scroll' & 'Caps Lock' lights flash
           Product: Installation
           Version: 1.846
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: blocker
          Priority: P2
         Component: stage1
        AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

OVERVIEW: CD install of 9.2 download on an SCE mainboard with 450 K6-2 freezes 
during first stage of install. Same results using Beta2 & RC1 CDs.

TO REPRODUCE: Attempt to install 9.2 from CDs on the K6-2 system. Tried 
alternate images using CD2 with same result. Tried passing 'noapic' and/or 
'nopentium' and/or 'vga=0' using 'Expert' and 'Linux' and 'Text' options as well 
as the default. The CDs are good.

BUILD & PLATFORM: DrakeX version is 1847. Box is home-built and is used as a 
home server. Was running Mandrake 8.2 (and previously MNF as a firewall and 
gateway). SCE A586B AT main board, 450 K6-2 CPU, 256M of PC133 RAM running at 
100 meg FSB speed. Riva TNT video card with 16M RAM and Nvidia Vanta BIOS. 
Generic DVD-ROM + three HD: hda 30G WD, hdb 60G Segate, hdd 4G Quantum BigFoot. 
RAM tested as good. 

OTHER PLATFORMS: No similar problem installing on a slot-A Athlon system using 
the same disks.
