Yes, If it's not getting to a kernel panic from unable to rind a root device then i'm perplexed. You seem to be running the right kernel for your machine. Could you try running memtest86+ on it and see if its a memory issue. Adrian -- 24x7x365 != 24x7x52 Stupid or bad maths? <erno> hm. I've lost a machine.. literally _lost_. it responds to ping, it works completely, I just can't figure out where in my apartment it is. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
