HI, <br>
<br>
I'm not sure how or why but the newer releases of the kernel are
causing my system to "crash" - "kernel panic system stopped you may
reboot now"<br>
<br>
Specs<br>
Computer IBM Intellistation M PRo<br>
Dual P-III 550Mhz<br>
1 GB memory<br>
80 GB IDE & 9 GB SCSI<br>
32 x CDROM<br>
10/100 NIC, Video onboard<br>
<br>
These are the kernels on the system; and only from Fedora Core
(2.6.9-1.11_FC2smp) or before work, (those bolded) all the others give
exactly the same error. It doesn't matter whether I use SMP or single
same problem. <br>
