There was a problem a while ago, with PYXIS support (MIATA/LX/SX) being limited to 1GB of RAM. Not a problem on LX/SX, since they have only 4 DIMM slots, but MIATA has 6... :-\ This was fixed... :-) Please try (since you've tried 2.2.16 and 2.2.17 :-) 2.2.18 or, better, 2.2.19. Good luck. --Jay++ ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Jay A Estabrook Alpha Engineering - LINUX Project Compaq Computer Corp. - MRO1-2/K20 (508) 467-2080 200 Forest Street, Marlboro MA 01752 [EMAIL PROTECTED] -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
