The messages still on display forever !!!! I found a solution to this problem ! I don't know why but this happens when I have 2 scsi disks connected in the machine. If I remove the second disk, then everything is ok and it continues to uncompress the kernel, etc. This is really strange ! Can anybody explain why it gets stuck when more than one disk is connected to the machine ? Note that the second disk can be seen ok when the machine has been kickstarted. Cheers, Thierry.
