As a follow up to my last posting, when I start the install cd from the boot prompt with this

linux ide0=ata66 ide1=ata66 pci=biosirq idebus=66

The CD starts up and then crashes out with a kernel panic,

Here are the last couple of lines.

read_super_block: can't find a reiserfs filesystem on (dev 01:00, block 64, size 1024)
read_super_block: can't find a reiserfs filesystem on (dev 01:00, block 8, size 1024)
XFS: bad magic number
XFS: SB validate failed
Kernel panic: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on 01:00

******

Now I know the CD is ok because I can boot it off another box no problem. I think there is a problem with how the kernel is reading my CD-ROM. Any ideas on what is going on here?

Cheers

So you are getting further along than your other problem, or is this a continuation of the same problem?

I have gotten much further. I have now managed to get the install screen up,, when I use rescue mode instead of straight linux mode.

rescue ide0=ata66 ide1=ata66 pci=biosirq idebus=66

So I will work away on it and see if I can get it working. I would be interested to see why this is happening.
