installation - kernel panic
Hi. I've just downloaded slackware 10.2 iso. I've checked md5 sum - OK. During the booting it crashes:
Code:
Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address ffffe004 |
hi there and welcome to LQ,
maybe some hardware information would be nice... ;) what kind of partition schema do you have? i mean, before the installation try.. regards, slackie1000 |
my hardware:
- mainboard DFI with VIA chip - 64 MB SDRAM - PIII 550MHz - HD 9766 MB partitions: [ Primary FAT32 7051,9MB (active) (with windows) ] [ Primary Swap 133,4 MB ] [ (*) Primary extended 2580,8 ] [ Logical FAT32 2580,7 ( here i want make ext3 for / )] - voodoo3 - creative SB PCI128 - WLAN Adapter (PLANET) |
hi there,
i think this panic is cpu related. do you have any kind of "special" processor? can you boot any other linux distro in this machine? Ex. Knoppix? regards, slackie1000 |
no, i haven't a "special" processor :)
on this machine slackware 9.0 works fine, mandrake 8.0, red hat & knoppix too. i will try to install an older slack. |
Do you compare your iso image with others of mirrors?:)
|
yes, and i think, that is a hardware problem
|
Did you show the detailed hardware list?
You do have more than one cdrom drive and HDD?^^ |
same here
Hello!
Same happens to me... Though, at random point of time after booting up... It never happened during the boot sequence. I installed Slackware 10.2 on my Dell d610. I previously have had Debian working fine, and Slackware 10.1 and FreeBSD, all of them were running more or less fine... except for some mis-configs that were, most of time, my newbieness :) Hardware is: Pentium M/512MB/HD/CDRW+DVD/Intel i915GM Partitions: 1-Dell utilities 2-WinXP 3-swap (2Gb) 4-linux 17Gb all primary, since no need for extended... I installed Slack just yesterday... with 2.4 kernel.. I will probably have to switch to 2.6 to get some decent transfer rates out of my HD... I wanted to do it yesterday but didn't have time, so machine was booted and sitting there on login prompt for the whole day, but as soon as I logged in 10 secs later ... when I was editing sudoers file ... there it was... Couple more times after that... cheers, rasha |
