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.

Did you just put this machine together or have you been using it for a while?
Hugo.
I put the system together in July of last year.
We're all guessing of course but I would say it isn't the BIOS as suggested: it would have happened earlier. I would run the memtest and let us know what you found.
Hugo.
