Re: [BProc] problem booting 2.4.19 on Tyan 2466 dual nodes

[steven j. <py...@li...>]

Greetings,

I usually use PXE boot on those boards, so my experiance isn't directly
related, but I have seen similar behaviour when the initrd has a CRC
error.

For a test, it might be worth trying either NFS root mount, hda1, or even
a floppy as a root filesystem to eliminate the ramdisk as a problem.

G'day,
sjames
