Hi,

I can't install the newly downloaded FC1/x86_64.
The md5sums are OK.

Machine is an MSI K8T Neo FIS2R with and Athlon64 3200+,
512MB Kingston HyperX DDR400 single stick,
Radeon 9200SE/APG8x, Radeon 7000/PCI, Avermedia TVPhone98
bttv card and an SB Live! 1024. Two PS/2 keyboard and
two USB mice is also plugged into this machine,
I use the linuxconsole.sf.net patch against linux-2.6.3
presently with the i386 FC1.

Mainboard BIOS is v1.3beta6 since it does not disable
the onboard sound if a PCI soundcard is found. I use both.

The i386 version of FC1 is already installed and running.
FC 0.96 (x86_64) was installed from NFS in January,
and is regularly updated by hand (rpm -Uvh --force --nodeps *.rpm
in x86_64/os/Fedora/RPMS of FC2 devel) and they work
with this machine.

The machine passed Memtest+ 1.11 stress.

The error an "Attempted to kill swapper task" message
after loading /sbin/loader. The oops has a "Bad RIP value"
line, the call trace indicates default_idle+0 and default_idle+5.
I did not write the whole screen content down, I will if requested.
