I have observed the same kind of problem on a Dell Optiplex 990. I tried an upgrade to 6.4 via bsd.rd and the system boots the kernel and then reboots a few seconds later. Booting the bsd.rd or bsd.mp kernels provides the same result. I made sure that HT was turned off in the (most recent) BIOS, and I paved the box and reinstalled 6.3 via CD without incident. I tried an upgrade to 6.4 and got the same results.
The only odd thing I can think of with this system is the installation
is on the second hard drive. The first hard drive is disabled in the
BIOS.
dmesg (from a fresh 6.3 install) is attached.
Thanks,
