It seems that there is problem with AC2 on some AS4100s. The AC2 kernel 
panics, we are trying to undertand
why. Any way you would have to install UP kernel (SMP kernel doen't 
work) and then use updated SMP kernel from
AC2 update directory. You could download it and try to install in 
parallel on AC1 and test it. If it work - everything else
could be updated from local yum repository.
