Install fails with kernel panic after "freeing unused kernel memory" & note re. SMP
Last modified: 2006-09-08 10:27:16 UTC
10.2a4 cd1 & mini-iso (both checked with md5sum on file and verified by k3b burner) Very early in install, "Kernel panic - not syncing: attempted to kill init!" occurs just after "freeing unused kernel memory" message, which is followed by "SMP" alone on a line. Hardware isn't SMP... Tried default install, "safe settings" and using F4 to pre-select NFS & server - all crash in the same way. Hardware is AMD K6-2/500 with 512M RAM, ATI AGP video I can post a picture of the screen but obviously no log files etc. See also 203466 (not posted by me) though that is 10.2 alpha 3
