This morning I decided that it's finally time up update Gentoo to match the new mobo & CPU installed several months ago.
First 2 attempts to boot from the LiveCD complained of an X configuration error. This didn't seem quite right as the video is simply the ASUS M2A-VM HDMI's on mobo video. However I did want a command line and got it, so things were more or less OK. The "less OK" part is that I wanted to use the following partition map: /dev/hda1 31 MB /boot /dev/hda6 9.7 GB / /dev/hda8 153 GB /home What I got was (if memory serves) /dev/sda1 /mnt/LiveCD /dev/hda6 /mnt/cdrom as /mnt/cdrom was Read-Only, this precluded installing there. So, I rebooted several more times with the following result: NMI Watchdog detected LOCKUP on CPU 0 CPU 0 Modules linked in: siimage r8169 snd_hda_intel ... ... swapper Not tainted 2.6.19-gentoo-r5 #1 ... Code: 7e f9 eb f2 c3 fa f0 ff 0f 79 09 f3 90 83 3f 00 7e f9 eb f2 <0> Kernel panic - not syncing:L Aiee, killing interrupt handler I've gotten this same NMI error the last 4 times I've booted -- even using a second copy of the 2007.0 LiveCD that I happened to have. Any suggestions of what to do? Thanks. David -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
