I've attached a tbz file with both the dmesg output and the kernel configuration.

The more I think on this, I believe it's a bug for the kernel maintainers, not the installers. While it *IS* a bug, the fact that the installer works with the 2.6 kernel implies to me that it would work if it had a working 2.4 kernel. Maybe I'm wrong, but at least it sounds logical to me. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.4 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFBZcLZjeziQOokQnARAiKkAKCD2De5bnt/MyoVnJGnoh0oFtFgAwCfSQwk 0nN5DNhKo9q/TYPb0hTQmwg= =aPCe -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
