Hello all,

I have been running RedHat 7.1 on my home computer for about 6mos now. The machine is used as a gateway to the internet running adsl, ipmasq, and firewall. I was working on some shell scripting when the following error was given:

$ Oops: 002
CPU: 0
EIP:0100:[<C123e160>]

(Bunch of stuff here I didn't write down....)

Kernel Panic: Aiee, Killing Interrupt Handler
In (or ln not sure) Interrupt Handler- Not Syncing

My computer completely froze at this point. I tried to get it back by rebooting multiple times but aslo froze at this point and i cann't loggin my pc

Please help me,
Thanks

Send some log outputs from:

/var/log/syslog, messages, auth.log firewall.log ?

im having a similar problem installing mandrake 9.1....
I am currently using windows 98 and red Hat 9. i an trying to install mandrake 9.1, but when i try to install, i get the following error message (partial, the real one is nearly a page and a half long! but this is the important part of it):

my roomate intalled mandrake using the same discs and had no problem at all...

my computer has:
soyo kt400 ultra dragon platinum mobo
Athlon XP 2600+ @ 2.133 GHz
256 pc3200 DDR RAM
80GB Seagate Barricuda HDD (gonna be linux drive)
4.5 GB Quantum Fireball HDD (swap)
6.5 GB Fujitsu (however u spell that) (windows drive)
64 MB DDR GeForce 4 MX 440 graphics card
Sony 16x DVD drive
Artec 52x24x52 cd burner


ive looked all over the internet and cant find a solution, if anyone could help me, it would be greatly apreciated

Hmm this doesn't look like a problem with the CD. What might be the problem is:

You're using a 80Gb seagate barricuda, which must be a UDMA disk right? and your swap disk 4.5GB quantum fireball is a DMA disk right? Are they connected to the same controller on your mainboard? It might be that it's confusing the booting kernel. Try to put the 4.5GB on a nother controller as the UDMA disk, then boot again ....

Hope this helps,

all 3 drives are masters on seperate IDE controllers.....ah, the joys of RAID....

speaking of which, i tried unplugging all but the 80GB drive and install mandrake, and it worked....well.... all but the internet, it recogniized my ethernet card, but it wouldnt connect....*shrug soulders* i just cant win....

Do you mean when disconnecting the other drives, except the 80gb disk, the install works ? Hmmzz

What actually didn't work from your networkcard ?

right....when i had 1 harddrive plugged in, the install worked fine....
but when i logged in, i could not connect to the internet....it recognized my ethernet card, but would not make a connection....
i was talkin to some ppl who are usin mandrake, and found out that when the boot screen (the one that lists what u want to boot into i.e. linux, floppy, failsafe, etc...) u hit escape and type 'linux noapic' (w/o quotations) then the internet worked....appearently, a lot of ppl have problems connecting to the internet until they do that.....
