1 I've been seen something similar over the last few days.
2
3 I've been trying to install SELinux from the 20040616 iso on an old
4 PIII 500. Each time I tried the system stops dead within a few hours
5 of booting. It won't respond to keyboard input and drops off the net.
6 Nothing is logged to screen.
7
8 I initially thought this was a hardware problem (I threw this box together
9 from spares), but have swapped several components to no avail. Each time
10 I tried the box locked up during the glibc build (about 3 hours into the
11 stage2 build). I tried last night just building glibc - it worked fine,
12 but the system locked up after the build finished - whilst the system was
13 sitting idle.
14
15 I've since tried installing from the 2004.1 livecd and got through the
16 stage2 build without any trouble. The box was happily chugging away on
17 'emerge system' when I left it this morning.
18
19 The bottom line - the problem appears to be either specifically SELinux
20 related, or, from the previous emails in this thread, possibly 2.6
21 related.
