I had some similar problems recently (on dual athlon), where it was |
| 14 |
running oldish kernels (2.5.4 I think) OK, but 2.6.5 & later wouldn't |
| 15 |
boot. Memtest reported bad memory; booting the new kernels with a suitable |
| 16 |
mem= parameter confirmed this (they then booted fine, and continue to be |
| 17 |
fine with replacement memory). So I recommend checking the memory. |
