Hi, removing the MUX board solved the ramdisk problem at my HP, too, but i have another Kernel panic afterwards. The 32Bit Kernel as well as the 64Bit kernel (which outputs some strange pages before but kept running into the ramdisk-error, too) seems mainly to work, but after
freeing unused kernel memory: 320k freed it shows a message like that: Failed to execute /linuxrc'. Attempting defaults... Setting up filesystem, please wait... after minutes of waiting i pressed CR/LF , and there was Kernel panic - not syncing: Kernel Fault. This error occurred with the debian-etch iso, because i was not able to boot from the gentoo-isos, i dont know why, And there is another problem., after switching the machine off and on again after kernel panic, the display of tha machine said something like PS /*I dont know*/ cpus=3333 ps=4 I removed the third CPU and it worked again, could you tell me whats wrong with my Powersupply? cu Dieter Am Montag 24 April 2006 00:38 schrieb Brett Johnson: > On Sun, Apr 23, 2006 at 09:06:43PM +0200, Dieter Ries wrote: > > could you please describe to a newbie what that mux-board is, what it > > looks like, where i can find it and how i can remove it? > > That would be great! > > The mux board I removed was model J2092A.
