I am having boot problem with 2.1.121
When I try use LILO (20 from Slackware 3.5) to boot up
linux kernel 2.1.121, I just getting reboot right after
'Loading linux.......' in 6-8 tries from 10, some times
I getting hungs instead of reboots
One or two times It is complained about 'crc error'.
However if I dd kernel to floppy or try to load it with
LoadLin from DOS, all is fine. I even tried to copy
kernel at another location on ext2fs to ensure that there is
not corrupted disk area. No luck. Kernels since 2.1.85 to
2.1.120 behaves well, 2.0.X is good too.
If I boot 2.1.121, ten probability of loading next time
before power cycle is increased until I load another kernel.
Am I doing something wrong, or what can it be?
I use just plain Pentium 166 and mobo with plain Intel VX chipset.
16M of RAM. All kernels compiled with GCC 2.7.2.3. Here is my /proc/cpuinfo, kernel
config and output of kernel at boot time.
