| Post subject: | Hang on boot |
KnoppMyth R5A10 Tyan Thunder K8W S2885 Dual AMD64 Opteron 248 Gigabyte FX5200 Hauppauge WinTV PVR 250 - MODEL 980 (PS/2 keyboard - as I've read USB won't work) I just installed R5A10. Everything seemed to install fine. But after the reboot, the system hangs. I get past POST, LILO and the framebuffer DMESG screen scrolls by until the hang. Here's a link to the screenshot: http://photos5.flickr.com/7117745_bdffe0c44b_o.jpg It looks like it is in the Hotplug section and PCI. One time I was able to catch a glimpse of an error earlier in the DMESG about bus/something/PCI, but it goes by too fast to catch the exact wording. I did the install with a USB keyboard, but after I read about problems with hanging on boot, I switched to an old PS/2 keyboard. Do I need to re-install using the PS/2 keyboard? Any thoughts? Thanks, Greg |

No, you don't need to reinstall. Remove cards/disable options in the BIOS to see if it boots. |

Hmmm, I only have the 5200 (AGP) card and the WinTV PVR 250 card (PCI). I can only remove the PVR-250 (I need the 5200 for video), but that defeats the purpose of the box. Any BIOS options in particular I should look at - right now everything is default settings. Thanks again, Greg |

Plug and Play. Try the 250 in another slot. Modify lilo.conf and append noacpi. |

I tried a bunch of combinations of BIOS settings and adding noacpi to the append section of /etc/lilo.conf. All to no avail. Then I pulled out the 250, and voila, it worked. My problem is that the 250 can only fit in 1 slot on the motherboard due to the way it is keyed. the other slots are 64-bit (http://www.tyan.com/products/html/thunderk8w.html). Hmmm, this is not good. Any other ideas? Thanks, Greg |
