Quoting Johnny Hughes <mailing-lists@xxxxxxxxxxxx>: > Also, verify that the motherboard has the latest BIOS (many acpi/apic > issues get fixed in bios upgrades). Thanks all. Just to close this thread, upgrading the BIOS took care of the issues. I can now install from either the 4.4 release - or the 4.0 release and upgrade - without having to pass any kernel options to get things booted. Thanks for the advice. -- Cynthia Kiser _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@xxxxxxxxxx http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
