Hi,
mainboard is MSI K8T Neo, Athlon64 3200+.
It does not boot successfully without the "nolapic"
option. "noapic" does not make any difference, "nolapic" does.
Kernel is compiled on a 32bit Fedora,
K7/Athlon and Hammer/Opteron/Athlon64
are selected under CPU support.

Uncompressing kernel... and then nothing. Even the screen is emptied,
cursor blinks in column 0 of line approx. 8, at about 1/3 of the screen.

I will try these. FC1 2.4.22-2149 definitely works.

OK.

Just an idea: I had similar problems in 2.6.1-mm4.
I had to disable PNP bios support.
cheers,

1. "does not boot successfully" is extremely vague.
Please supply a boot log or decoded kernel oops.
2. Does this also occur with 2.6.1 or 2.6.2-rc1?
If so, what was the last standard 2.6 kernel that worked?
3. Does 2.4.25-pre6 work?
4. Try a minimal .config w/o any non-essential features.
(Where non-essential mean anything not needed to boot
and get to a login prompt.)
