Note that it happens on two different boards Asus P5GZMX and also on P5GV-MX. The iso from ("precompiled Unattended ISO as of CVS 2006-06-09, hosted by Falko Trojahn" link to http://www.smi-softmark.de/unattendedcvs/unattended-cvs.tar.gz) works on both of them, except for the parted.

Hi Alon, this is a bit strange. AFAIK reboot after loading initrd would mean the kernel has been compiled for other architecture, e.g. i686/K8/VIA etc. but as far as I remember I've compiled for i586/PII/PIII/... What other hardware do you have there, did you boot from iso or via network/pxe? AL> iso I think I didn't try the iso myself, since I use this just for PXE, but I can do that tomorrow just for testing. Does the machine boot with another linux distro, e.g. knoppix? AL > It boots with the iso from the iso I downloaded from your page ("precompiled Unattended ISO as of CVS 2006-06-09, hosted by Falko Trojahn" link to http://www.smi-softmark.de/unattendedcvs/unattended-cvs.tar.gz) . I do the regular unatended installation, but I get the ntldr error, I assume because the parted version problem. Did you try the 2.6.17 kernel? AL > yes, it hangs on the "loading initrd" at the start of the boot.
