Ah, reminds me of the issues I had with amiboot and larger kernels [1]. > Failing that, can you send me a photo of the crash?

Here you go: http://imgur.com/a/luLEV The last screen is actually where it stops. It looks the same when booting 3.14 but this kernel continues to boot fine after the pink screen. > You might want to order a 16.666 MHz crystal as well, in case of > instability at 40Mhz.

The Centris 650 has a big heat sink as well which is why the guys from the clockchipping website claimed overclocking them wouldn't be an issue at all. >> Personally, I think the serial and parallel ports aren't that essential > > Maybe.
