I'm rather embarrassed, but I must not have tried this on 5.2.1. I had tried it when I wanted to install 5.1, without success, but it worked for 5.2.1 I know that this system supports ACPI, as I've both checked the documentation as well as had used a Linux kernel with ACPI support (I've checked and my 4.9 kernel doesn't have acpi built-in. Is there any way to use ACPI at present, or are the changes that still need to be made to the code? --Ben Arjan van Leeuwen wrote: >On Monday 02 February 2004 21:31, Benjamin Slavin wrote: > > >>Hi everyone, >> >>This is my first time posting to the list, so please forgive any >>mistakes I might make. >> >>I'm currently running 4.9-STABLE without issue on a Dell Precision 420 >>Workstation. >>The system is dual processor (P3-733) and has an Adaptec SCSI controller >>onboard (aic7899), and 512MB of RDRAM. >> >>I was curious to take a look at the 5-series, so I threw in an older 9GB >>SCSI drive and tried to install 5.2-RELEASE. >> >>Upon inserting the CD, the system starts to come up, but crashes when >>trying to initialize the SCSI drives.
