system freezes after INIT 2.84 message


Well I've come accross the problem that the system just freezes after displaying "INIT 2.84" on RH 7.3.94 (Beta relase for RH 7.4). I've been doing a server install and installed ALL kernels and the system went fine ... I installed the workstation version with again ALL kernels and the system just freezes.

I installed ALL kernels since I couldn't get the system to boot at all without doing that ... that's a really weird problem and seems to be kernel related or ?

I've got a
AMD 700, 384 MB RAM as file system I've chosen ext3 ... maybe I should give it a go with ext2 also ... will try that later on today!


Anybody knows how to fix that problem ?
