where swap size was dependent on CPU architecture (i.e.,
zeon/opteron/athlon etc), not 32/64bit.)

Dear list,
I switched now to a new mainboard and it seems that the drive numbering
changed or my kernel does not detect any hard disks...
If I try to boot my gentoo the kernel panic because it cannot find the

After the panic I cannot scroll up to check what drives are detected and

Hallo Mick.
Thank you very much - it helped. Removing 'video=vesafb:ywrap,mtrr:3 vga=792'
from kernel boot options, and framebuffer-related stuff in kernel config,
especially:
# CONFIG_FB_DDC is not set
# CONFIG_FB_BOOT_VESA_SUPPORT is not set
# CONFIG_FB_BACKLIGHT is not set
# CONFIG_FB_MODE_H

I've known for years what microcode is and what it does, but the idea
