I've been working to get Debian (and actually redhat too, for testing purposes) installed on a friend's computer. However, every time he tries to boot the rescue disk (or any install kernel i.e. using the boot.bat or even redhat's install) his computer reboots after he sees a few kernel messages. He has a K6 with one Western Digital ultra DMA and one Maxtor ultra DMA. I thought that perhaps the Maxtor hard drive was causing his problem, but he's switched them around in every possible combination and it hasn't helped. I had read that bios caching can cause problems like this, so I had him go into his bios and turn off all the shadowing, but to no avail.
What are other possible causes of this frustrating problem? -- _____ _ | ____|(_) http://www.iit.edu/~jenseri | _| | | Page me via ICQ at | |___ | | http://wwp.mirabilis.com/19022931 |______/ | or by mailing [EMAIL PROTECTED] |__/
