Hello all.

I have a notebook Dynabook E7-518PME Japanese,
It only accepts Windows XP japanese. I can install
Slax(vfat) but I want to install with Slack 13.1.

When I try to boot, my Kernel stop here:

At first, maybe try Slackware 13.37 as 13.1 is quite outdated by now.

You can always try another kernel, if the one you use is not working (fnic: FCoE HBA Driver is a fiberchannel driver I doubt a laptop would need this)

Why does it only accept Windows XP ?

Please provide more info

My notebook accepts Windows XP Japanese only. I tried the another Windows but doesn't work.

I tried 13.1 or 13.37. I found the same error(fnic: FCoE HBA Driver, ver 1.0.0.1121).
I don't have problem with Slax but I cannot install slax with xfs.

Here, i Don't have CD-ROM and I cannot install with Flash drive.
I cannot change my BIOS because is limited. I can change date and time only.

I have my PC with USB(IDE/SATA) cable to access my HD.
I have 2 partitions:

The first is SlackUSB(boot).
The second is xfs(i want to install slack here).

I tried several distro, I found the same problem.
Slax is good but I cannot change the file system.
vfat is not safe, i lost data with slax.

I forgot.

I put 3 files about my notebook.
