Re: kernel panic on i2000 when configuring network

[Philippe Gramoullé <philippe.gramoulle@mmania.com>]

Hi,

Try to pass the following to the kernel boot options:

swiotlb=32768

If i don't do that, 20010810 iso crashes during install.

My 0.02 euro.

  |  ifconfig eth0 130.89.67.208

  |  Any help is highly appreciated!!
