Thanks but, as I either said here or put in the install report, I couldn't get to the stage of installing a new kernel because the system wouldn't reboot after the initial installation phase: Loaded kernel version 2.6.8 Loading initial ramdisk (3227648 bytes at 0x1F802000 phys, 0x40C00000 virt)... | Remapping the kernel... ERROR: Last Trap: Fast Instruction Access MMU Miss Error -256 However, I've found that I can then get it going by using `reset' in ALOM (not reset-all in OBP), so I have actually had it running. It's not clear what gets it in that state since I could do a reboot successfully from the fully-installed system. The OBP version doesn't seem to be the problem. I upgraded from the original 4.0.something (I think), and tried the latest and the older one in the patch. There seems to be a fundamental problem here. I can't test the new kernel just at the moment, but I wouldn't care too much about the networking since I have an hme card to use. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
