Greetings, list!
I get kernel panic while trying to install CentOS 4.4 on an oldish PC.
The machine is P III 500 MHz (this info is displayed at the beginning of
boot). 256M RAM at the moment (I plan to add more later). I have 386 version
of the installer.
The boot begins ok - I get the "CentOS" screen (from CD-ROM), and the boot
process after that begins ok, until...
I hope the following helps you understand the problem:
-------------------
mounting [etc. etc.]
running install...
running /sbin/loader
[After this there is kernel panic with a lot of cryptic texts. Here's some
that seems to be relevant: ]
Call Trace:

----------------------
What could I try to get this working?
