Can you get the corresponding dmesg output, e.g. via ssh or from /var/log/kern.log? > I had to boot from an install cd in rescue mode to revert. Doesn't yaboot allow specifying kernel command line parameters at its prompt, so you don't have to make them permanent for testing? Even if it doesn't, you could use a separate testing entry in yaboot.conf. -- Earthling Michel Dänzer | http://www.amd.com Libre software enthusiast | Debian, X and DRI developer -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-x-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
