Re: [Cooker] [Bug 5061] [kernel] Installation failes at hard drive detection

[magic]

I am also seeing this problem.  I am running mdk91 on the machine 
currently, and can not upgrade or install. I get as far as setting up 
the mouse, and then what appears to be a scan for hard drives (I have a 
dpt raid card) and hangs.  Tried the no acpi boot line and that had no 
effect  :'(

  Hope this helps...

  Thanks,

  S

Have you tried booting without apic? And disabling acpi?
At the first graphical prompt (syslinux), hit F1, and type:
linux noapic acpi=off
And see if that gets you any further.

It looks like there are still apic/acpi problems in the kernel ...
