Autostart in BIOS
Here is one that will make you all in ????? unless on of you can tell me why ?
I tried to configure the BIOS so that my Computer automatic started a 8AM every day, so in the BIOS I just entered to start any Weekday at 8AM ( It is a ASUS Motherboard ) now here is the strange thing, when it started at 8AM it crashed at the point where it was " Configure Kernel Parameters " now when I tried to reinstal and re format it would not start, it stoped in the same place, now after cleaning the master boot record I would boot correct, even switching the computer off or just reset, everything was OK, but when I tried again to make it start at 8AM it again crashed at the same place, and MBR had to be cleaned. Any IDEAS ? |

ya right. Asus make very good motherboard but their BIOS just sucks. I have a bug in mine doing my box losing the time configuration every 5 min... Except if you want to flash it I think you will have to live with that bug. |
I know I have to flash, but what connection do the autostart have with the MBR ??????????? I also know that ASUS BIOS is very poor, but it just sounded like a gost story to me, and of cause it have nothing to do with the time it starts.
Apart from all that my BOX runns like a dream with Disabled swap space, as I have 512MB RAM, absolutly no problems anywhere, except from the autostart, but that is not a LINUX or OpenOffice issue. Only one thing is sometimes the hard disk LED stays alight, and I can not find any reason for that. |

Sounds to me like it is a kernel image problem or you've not rerun lilo or mk_initrd (on SuSE) or something. |
AUTOSTART
Ohhh it is for sure a Kernel problem, but I have now tried four times and each time it stops on the same place " Configuring Kernel Parmeters " this is where it freezes each time , and the same thing happens then you have to clean the MBR.
I also know that Linux have nothing to do with this, especialy when everything works normal if you don't use autostart, That is why it is mind bugling. I'm using Kernel 2.4 in Mandrake 8.1 |
