Good day.

I have been having the same problem with 2.1.127, and 8. I have 3
servers that I use oin a regular basis. 1 pentium pro, 1 K6-233, and 1
486. The PPro is 100% SCSI, as is the 486. The K6 is IDE Based, with
some scsi additions. The Ppro uses an Adaptec 2940UW, the 486 has a
2842, and the K6 has a 2940U.

The last kernel that booted on the K6 was 2.1.125. I have not been
able to make 2.1.127 or 8 work on there. At first it locked up at
Loading.. Then I rebuilt from scratch, and it would make it to 'Ok
Uncompressing Kernel, and boot Linux' ( I think thats the first line).
The video mode successfully changes to 50 lines, and it hangs. Nothing
more.

K6 System:

64Meg Ram
SiS IDE Chipset (5513?)
S3 Video (DX/GX)
hda: 1.6gig (/dev/ide/hd/c0b0t0u0)
hdc: 1.0gig (/dev/ide/hd/c0b1t0u0)
hdd: 540Meg (/dev/ide/hd/c0b1t1u0) - Emergeny Bootable Linux Partition
sda: IBM 4gig Ultra.
sr0: Sony SCSI CD 4x.
SoundBlaster 16
SMC PCI Nic
USR 56k

Kernel Info:
virgin 2.1.128+devfs v77
Complied as a PPRo/K6/Whatever (proc selection) I don't think it
matters, butI am recompiling for Pentium (as I am writing)
IP Routing/Masq/etc
AIC Support, IDE Support, Sound blaster built in.


If anyone has any suggestions, they would be appreciated. If I can help
please let me knwo.
