Got a problem...
Trying to install redhat 5 on a new customers machine. It is a Pentium
200 w/MMX, with 32 megs ram. The motherboard is an Intel 82430TX, with the
Award 4.51PG BIOS version. For some reason, when I try booting with the
floppy that came with redhat, the machine magically reboots as the kernel
is loading. As far as I can tell (the info scrolls by quickly) the kernel
gets to the "checking for HLT instruction", and then it reboots. I've
double checked the jumper settings on the motherboard, and tried a few
different types of SIMMS. Still reboots. Any ideas? I'm trying to prove
RedHat's quality at my workplace, and this is not helping. They are all
FreeBSD, BSDI 3.0 biased, and say that the rebooting is just another
example of the poor quality and instability of Linux. (which I know is
_not_ true)
TIA,
-steve
