I now have two 128M PC133 DIMMs that were purchased about two years ago, and one 256M PC133 DIMM purchased recently. Going on the assumption that the new chip was causing the problem, I removed it; the system booted correctly. I then removed the old chips, and left the new one in, and the system still booted correctly. I then put all three chips back in (with the newest chip in a different slot), and it still won't boot. What's strange, though, is that my kernel from August continues to work fine. > What options did you use to build the kernel? I have switched back to the GENERIC kernel, with no customisations. In /etc/make.conf, I have set CPUTYPE=p3, although I have also tried things without this variable defined. Alex.
