A good thought! I'm out of time today, but I'll give that a try as soon as I get a couple of hours. I normally do custom layouts anyway, but for this I just wanted to get it up so I could move my activities from a CentOS 5.x and put 6 on that node too. So doing a manual formatting and layout won't add a lot to what I've tried already. > > - Rilindo Foster > Thanks for the suggestion! Bill > On Oct 16, 2011, at 2:46 PM, "William L.

Re: [CentOS] CentOS 6.0: panic installing i386 on old Acer Desktop
No ideas yet, but let me ask this: if you boot into rescue mode mode with a CentOS 6 disk, what happens if you were modify partitions and format the file systems within the shell? It would be interesting to see if you were to get a kernel panic at that point or not. - Rilindo Foster http://monzell.com http://www.linkedin.com/pub/rilindo-foster/2/b32/43b On Oct 16, 2011, at 2:46 PM, "William L.

Still no joy. > Amazing what brainstorms hit after you click "send". Unfortunately, the thoughts didn't help. I tried again using the kernel parameters from the CentOS 4.8 grub kernel parameters that still work. ide0=ata66 ide1=ata66 hdc=ide-cd lapic AFAICT, same results.
