Build is Psyche-i386 Also, I have succesfully run RH7.0 on this system with the updated XFree86 modules. Why does a newer version of the OS break things? Bad! :( I think you can close this thread I've have solved the problem, and I can only come to two possible solutions. I had DRAM ECC enabled in the bios, which is not supported by my DRAM Modules. However, this BIOS configuration is incorrect and did stop the Pheobe2 build from booting past INIT:. I disabled this option in BIOS and booted the Pheobe2 build working properly. I then proceeded to reformat and install the Phsyche 8.0 release. Once another (seemingly) non-problematic installtion completed, I reboot. Now, with the BIOS options changed and everything was in working order, I had the same problem described in this bugtrack post, Hangs on INIT:, needs hard reboot. So, after 2 days of this, I finally tried re-installing pheobe2 and it works fine now. So, it's either my Physche CD media (which tested: PASS), or it's something wrong with Psyche and the anaconda installer. I presume something is wrong with GRUB, but not sure. I don't develop Linux :P I hope this can help someone else out. |
