While I agree with that sentiment, there is also no excuse for the 
Redhat-list to pass along messages like that. This list uses mailman 
to run the list, and mailman has a setting for Maximum length in Kb of 
a message body. I really think that about 3KB would be an appropriate 
setting.

 Hello all,
 
 I have setup several RH machines and the latest one I've got has stumped
 me.  The stats of the machine are:
 
 Athlon 1 Ghz
 128 MB RAM
 40GB Maxtor HD
 Transcend Motherboard
 
 All equipment is brand new and has been exchanged a few times cause
 certain components weren't working right, but now everything seems ok.

Re: Problems getting RH 7.2 to boot properly

2002-01-01 Thread K Old

Ok, well, I've looked in the messages log and have found the following.  It 
looks like the xfs is trying to start and can't (cause there is no sound 
card) and then it seems to start a chain reaction with all other services.

Sometimes I can actually get into the OS and start X, but a few minutes into 
the session, the mouse and keyboard freeze and I have to physically shut the 
machine down.

Any ideas what I can do to fix this?  I assume turning off xfs on startup is 
my first step.

If it helps, I recently got a similar trace and was unable to boot up although
at irregular intervals.  It was because I had been playing with the memory
DIMMs and ended up installing a combination unsupported by the motherboard
(combination of four 72 pin DIMMs with one 168 pin DIMM).  I get most of the
computer equipment handed down from friends and relatives, and they never
come with any manuals, etc.  So, I come across errors like this when replacing
parts a little bit at random to see how I can get it to work.

All in all, every single time I came across that particular trace it was due
to either an erroneous memory configuration or bad memory chips.
