hi all,
this is the first time i tried to use a 2.5.x kernel. i compiled it
successfully but at boot time it stops at "ok booting kernel"
this is gentoo 1.2, gcc-2.95.3, 2.5.64 vanilla
amd athlon 800, 512mb, asus a7v with udma/100 ibm-disk (boot device),
dvd-rom / cd-burner at udma/66
what shall i do? do you need additional information?
please cc me.

daniel

I've got the same problem on my HP ZT1195 laptop and it only just started
with the 2.5.64 kernels (and all bk snapshots). 2.5.63 worked fine. Config
attached below

Could you try the same config without APIC and IO APIC for Uniprocessor
?
I've a problem that is directly related to 2.5.64 and these features...
Without them, 2.5.64 just boots fine...

I tried that with 2.5.64-bk5 and it didn't help. Still hung at the same
place. This was with CONFIG_X86_UP_APIC unset which got rid of the following
CONFIG_X86_UP_APIC
CONFIG_X86_UP_IOAPIC
CONFIG_X86_LOCAL_APIC
CONFIG_X86_IO_APIC
