Description Jane Lv 2008-02-13 08:27:43 UTC 
Description of problem:
I installed RHEL5.2 test kernel kernel-2.6.18-80.el5.i686 from 
http://people.redhat.com/dzickus/el5/ on Intel Montevina platform with Penryn 
B1 processor.  System hangs when booting up this kernel.

It's not a bug.  Seems I installed kernel i686 version on the x86_64 based 
system.
