Error booting both Kernel 2.6.14-1.1637 and 2.6.14-1.1644

Sat May 6 20:55:18 UTC 2006

Oddly enough, updating to the latest beta version BIOS of my  
motherboard [K8N4-E Deluxe v.1011.3] fixed this problem.  I suspected  
a bios problem after I tried to upgrade to FC5 and encountered the  
same exact issues.  Updated the BIOS and no problems what-so-ever.   
This was when I upgraded to FC5 doing a clean install, so I can't  
verify that this would work for FC4, but I'm thinking it should if  
there is a BIOS update for you motherboard.

Hope this helps.
