hi
I have created a specialised spin of fedora 11, both gnome and XFCE,
which work fine on my desktop (a P4). However when I try to boot on an
old laptop, a K6/2 500 mhz, it fails at boot with
IO APIC resources could not be allocated
Kernel Panic - not syncinging: attempted to kill init
I have tried noapic and noacpi - no diiference
The laptop boots puppy fine
So any idea what the issue is here
Any help appreciated
I believe you need i686 or better to run f11. I suppose you could recompile
everything for [345]86 processor, but I don't think it comes that way. And there
may be some assumptions in scripts and commands that certain features are present.
Good to know puppy works, I have an old laptop.
