The scsi controller was probably the cause of the lock with the other kernel. Many of the boot kernels have various scsi drivers built into them, this can lead to a lock up if the wrong driver attempts to activate. > After upgradeign to 2.2.20 kenel the > system won't boot anymore (stops at md driver) .

So, you've got everything working now (with a 2.4.18 kernel) except the NIC? > NETWORK: Controller with Realtek RTL8029 chip The above card uses ne2k-pci module. -- Jamin W.
