Hi all, After trying out BeleniX on the livecd I decided to try installing it to my pc. The installer seemed to work fine, but when I rebooted after it completed I found myself unable to boot. Grub reported that the entries in the menu.lst file were wrong and suggested alternative entries, which I tried and found also failed. I the searched this group's archives and the bug tracking system on the BeleniX website and found alternative menu.lst entries to try. Again, this didn't work, but I was not expecting them to as I saw that even after re-installing I had no kernel in the /platform/i86pc/kernel location and no boot_archive there either, (in fact no kernel directory there as well).
The only 'unix' kernel I could find was in /boot/platform/i86pc/kernel so I tried copying it into the location in the menu.lst file and using bootadm to create a boot_archive once that was done. The were a few error messages about AMD64 cpu instructions, but as I have an Intel P4 1.6Ghz cpu I ignored those and rebooted again. It again failed to boot, but the trace it printed to the screen was: krtld: error during initial load/link phase Unexpected trap instruction pointer 0x10 error code, optional 0xc0cc12 code segment 0x896 flags register 0xc00070 Attempting stack backtrace: Stack traceback: instruction pointer 0xfe84791d error code, optional 0x0 code segment 0x10 flags register 0x10046 Attempting stack backtrace: Stack traceback: mutex_vector_enter+35(0xfe84791d,0x10,0x10046,0x0,0xc0cb2c,0x0) unexpected trap in early boot I realised that manually moving the kernel as I did was probably not going to work, but by that point I had run out of any other suggestions that I could find by searching. I've backed out the changes I made, and will re-install if needed, but is there anything you could suggest to help me get my system to boot? Many thanks, Jim.
