This seems to be a bug with the kernel trying to disable the CPU ID number which causes it to panic on Athlons. A way to resolve it is to type the following at the LILO prompt: LILO: linux x86_serial_nr=1 Another solution is: once the above solution gets you into the system , use linuxconf to add that parameter to lilo so that you don't have to type it in everytime. Third solution: recompile kernel. This seems to be a bug with the kernel trying to disable the CPU ID number which causes it to panic on Athlons.
