The entire machine crashes?

Comment 2 Daniel Vianna 2004-03-15 22:39:38 UTC
Yes. I had to switch off both kudzu and firewire to be able to 
install RH or the system would hang. PCMCIA makes the system hang 
when it tries to shut it down, so I switched it off too. So now what 
I have is a system that boots from HD fine, and is able to 
communicate to the outside world by means of Lan network and floppy. 
But it can't manage the DVD/CDROM driver or use other devices such as 
modem and infrared ports.

Comment 3 Bill Nottingham 2004-03-15 23:23:09 UTC
OK, this sounds like the kernel is having problems with your hardware.

Comment 4 Daniel Vianna 2004-03-15 23:34:01 UTC
Yeah, sounds likely. Any suggestions on solving this? Should I refer 
to someone else?

Comment 5 Bugzilla owner 2004-09-30 15:41:50 UTC
Thanks for the bug report. However, Red Hat no longer maintains this version of
the product. Please upgrade to the latest version and open a new bug if the problem
persists.

The Fedora Legacy project (http://fedoralegacy.org/) maintains some older releases, 
and if you believe this bug is interesting to them, please report the problem in
the bug tracker at: http://bugzilla.fedora.us/
