Doug,

Thanks for the quick response...  I've been trying a couple combinations 
  without any luck.....

FYI: My goal is a Promise RAID10 (need two more drives) and Intel RAID0, 
with the Promise being the daily use and the Intel being a weekly 
snapshot.  I've got another machine offsite performing daily rsync backups.

I've rebooted and selected option #2 from the "boot menu" which 
indicates ACPI is diabled, but the kernel dumps on errors 9 and 12 while 
booting.

I disabled "ACPI 2.0 Support", "ACPI APIC Support",  & "BIOS --> AML 
ACPI table" and if I boot normal or use option #2 the kernel dumps on 
errors 9 and 12 while booting.

I even disabled hyper-threading, re-enabled the above, selected option 
#2 and still the kernel dumps while booting.

In all instances after the kernel dump I'm placed in a debug mode....

I'm also running the latest version of ASUS BIOS (v1016) for the m/b if 
that makes a difference.
