I then rebooted, entering linux noapic at the boot prompt with the same results. I then booted with linux DEBCONF_DEBUG=5 and switched to the output on Alt-F4. The last two lines were: user.debug frontend: --> SUBST hw-detect/load_progress_step MODULE ide-probe-mod user.debug frontend: Adding [MODULE] ->[ide-probe-mod] The last line on the output on Alt-F3 was insmod 3c59x -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
