| |
We built a new system a little while ago, and have been trying to track down a problem. There's a stock Red Hat 6.2 install on it (Athlon 700 Thunderbird, Asus A7V board, 128M RAM). Windows runs fine, go figure.
The system crashes on boot of the linux partition. Unfortunately, this does mean that we haven't been able to run ksymoops or get any of the system files, so all we've got is what's on screen, including any visible system messages before that point. (Obviously, the stock CDROM kernel boots fine, as we can install linux in the first place.)
We have swapped out the motherboard and CPU with others of the same model, with no effect; we have also tried different RAM (and another install of RH6.2 on another hard drive) with no success. Plus multiple reinstalls, etc., etc. We're beginning to look narrowly at the power supply, by this point... :)
Without proper info, it's a stab in the dark, but has anyone seen something like this before?
TIA...
