Hi,
I have an ancient Pentium II 350Mhz system that I've used as a home firewall
for several years. I decided to try to upgrade it from 6.1 to 8.0 today, but
I was unable to get the kernel to boot without freezing. The point at which
it froze was:
vga0: <Generic ISA VGA> at port 0x3c0-0x3df iomem 0xa0000-0xbffff on isa0
Thinking it may be some ACPI related issue, I tried disabling ACPI in the
kernel and from the boot prompt, but still no joy. I also tried fiddling
with the PnP BIOS settings with no luck. Placing system into verbose logging
mode, it gets as far as printing out:
Device configuration finished.
procfs registered
And then freezes, right before it normally displays the "Timecounters tick
every xxx msec" line.
I have attached the full dmesg from the working 6.1 system. I know it's a
shot in the dark, but does anyone have any ideas or suggestions as to what I
could do to try to get this thing to boot? I've gotten many years of service
out of this system, but I'd still like to squeeze out a few more. :)
Thanks,
Steve
