I'm now back and running 2.6.1-mm5 without any problems. Is there any further info I can give, or patches I can apply? I've applied the early printk patch, the above patch, and I'm at a loss where the problem is. It hangs at the following spot: Linux version 2.6.2-rc2 (john@jfsnew) (gcc version 3.3.3 20040110 (prerelease) (Debian)) #2 SMP Mon Jan 26 09:17:00 EST 2004 BIOS-provided physical RAM map: BIOS-e820: 0000000000000000 - 00000000000a0000 (usable) BIOS-e820: 00000000000f0000 - 0000000000100000 (reserved) BIOS-e820: 0000000000100000 - 000000002fffe000 (usable) BIOS-e820: 000000002fffe000 - 0000000030000000 (reserved) BIOS-e820: 00000000fec00000 - 00000000fec10000 (reserved) BIOS-e820: 00000000fee00000 - 00000000fee10000 (reserved) BIOS-e820: 00000000ffe00000 - 0000000100000000 (reserved) 767MB LOWMEM available. found SMP MP-table at 000fe710 hm, page 000fe000 reserved twice. hm, page 000ff000 reserved twice. hm, page 000f0000 reserved twice.
