Comments/Problems:

Attempting to install lenny beta 2, I run into this:

1) Install runs smoothly
2) Boot gives this error and dies at very beginning of boot sequence:

Int 6: CR2 00000000

I tried re-downloading *.ISO and burning new CD with same result. And, tried tried daily build with same result.

I have successfully loaded an earlier build of lenny on the same hardware.

Checking Google, I found a long discussion of the problem at: 

http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/linux/kernel/949548

This suggests that the lenny beta 2 kernel may not work with my processor.

Is this something that needs to be fixed by kernel team?

Or, is there something I need to do to get around it?

Or, am I just plain screwed?

I really like Lenny and do so much want to run it.


Many thanks,

Lloyd R. Prentice

   [ Jérémy Bobbio ]
   * i386: Use -486 flavour for all CentaurHauls processors.  As they lack long
     NOP instructions, -686 kernels since 2.6.22+ fail to boot on these
     processors even if they claim 686 compatibility.  Closes: #492751
