Something strange happened to my system last night. When I woke up this morning, the machine was completely locked up. I cannot boot any linux kernel. I have been rolling my own kernels for a while, and the machine has a 2.6.3 and 2.6.4, neither of which will boot. It won't boot Knoppix, either from the CD-RW or the DVD-ROM drive. The machine is running Sid.
The strange thing is that WinXP boots OK (I have it installed in /dev/hda1 so that I can still play gamees). WinXP seems to work fine even with the system heavily loaded. The machine is an Athlon XP 2500+, nForce2 mobo. Here is the end of the boot messages where it locks up: /dev/ide/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/part6 on /usr/local type xfs (rw,nosuid,nodev) /dev/ide/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/part2 on /home type xfs (rw,nosuid,nodev) /dev/ide/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/part7 on /var/lib/systemimager type xfs (rw) usbfs on /proc/bus/usb type usbfs (rw) Starting hotplug subsystem (runlevel S): inputkernel driver evdev already loadedkernel driver evdev already loaded kernel driver evdev already loaded pci It just ends up with a blinking cursor after the "pci." The machine is then totally hard locked. If anyone can provide me some pointers I would really appreciate it. -Roberto ___________________________________________________ Yahoo!
