If you boot from the stock RH 8.0 SMP kernel does it work? If so then it ain't a hardware problem, or a compatability problem, it is a kernel config problem.
Are you using the source for the kernel from RedHat? If yes, then "cd /usr/src/linux; make clean" then "make xconfig" then load the config found in /boot/config-* (for the version you have) Then just remove the few things you don't want, or change the "M" to "Y" for a few things, and don't get to drastic. build your kernel and mods and then try that. If it works you can do a make xconfig again and try removing a few more things. -Ben. On Sat, 2002-12-14 at 11:53, Søren Neigaard wrote: > I have this old IBM PC Server 520 with 2 P133 CPU's.
