It boots from either of the Release CDs or from floppies. I've tried disabling everything that's not obviously needed at the sysinstall config screen (and I've tried it as it comes). In every case, after sysinstall continues the boot, it panics. I have no way of going back before the panic messages, but the final stuff on the screen (typed by hand) is: ------------------------------cut here------------------------------ pci0: (vendor=0x1039, dev=0x7018) at 1.4 pci0: (vendor=0x1039, dev=0x7013) at 1.6 irq 11 pcib2: at device 2.0 on pci0 pci1: pcib2 pci1: at 0.0 pci_cfgintr_virgin: using routable interrupt 10 Fatal trap 12: page fault while in kernel mode fault virtual address = 0xeb9b6 fault code = supervisor read, page not present instruction pointer = 0x8:0xc00eb8b1 stack pointer = 0x10:0xc06b8d6c frame pointer = 0x10:0xc06b8d6c code segment = base 0x0, limit 0xfffff, type 0x1b = DPL 0, pres 1, def32 1, gran 1 processor eflags = interrupt enabled, resume, IOPL = 0 current process = 0 (swapper) interrupt mask = net tty bio cam trap number = 12 panic: page fault Uptime: 0s Automatic reboot in 15 seconds - press a key on the console to abort ------------------------------cut here------------------------------ If anybody at all has a clue about how I can get this stinker to boot, I'd love to hear from you.
