Well, your were right, it was a stab in a dark and I missed. I've removed the Sata Drive put in some 15Gb IDE drive and started from scratch. I didn't even had a chance to install all from the handbook when I got to the point: 9.d. Optional: File Indexing and try to emerge "slocate" and of cause got a Kernel panic - not syncing: Aiee, killing interupt handler. I've eliminated option 1.) 2.) and 3.) IDE drive (see above): So my next option to try would be as you suggest, I will try: 4.) "-march-athlon64" in make.conf instead of "-march=k8" as handbook suggest (I'll start from scratch again). 5.) arctic silver compound as per Robert suggestion 6.) replace the mother-board 7.) replace the CPU 8.) go to Windows XP : -) (I have to keep sense of humor to keep my sanity as I've been trying to solve this problem for a week). -- #Joseph -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
