I went back to Sata Drive and started from scratch and when I tried to do "emerge --sync" I got this error:
"Uhhuh. HMI received. Dazed and confused, but trying to continue You probably have a hardware problem with your RAM chips NMI: IOCK error (debug interrupt?)

Is it problem with my standard memory or CPU memory cache? I'v run memtest86 two day ago and 17-passes went without any errors. -- #Joseph On Fri, 2005-07-22 at 21:32 -0400, Robert Crawford wrote: > On Friday 22 July 2005 07:57 pm, Joseph wrote: > > On Fri, 2005-07-22 at 17:24 -0400, Robert Crawford wrote: > > > Joseph, > > > Sorry- I haven't been reading this thread from the beginning, so I might > > > have missed some of your first posts. > > > > > > If we eliminate heat as the problem (not saying we absolutely have), I'm > > > starting to think it could be a misconfigured kernel, or kernel bug > > > itself. > > > > I'm just following handbook AMD64 instruction, so everything boots OK > > after installation (if I don't get the kernel panic). > > > > > What kernel are you you currently using?
