In fact I did eventually get the system to boot with all three cards installed, and I was about to post to say so. I can record simultaneously from the two DVB cards - haven't tried the analog one since then. I am not sure what originally caused the problem - it might just have been that something was badly seated and repeated insertions eventually cleared this, but I do suspect that there is a more subtle problem: the first successful boot happened immediately after several attempts that appeared to hang or, in one case, looked OK but then did not respond to the keyboard. Since then I have rebooted only once, after leaving the system running overnight with a locked keyboard and finding it, on my return, unresponsive but with worrying sounds of much disk activity. On that occasion it rebooted on the first attempt and it now appears to be working well. Here are some sections of the current dmesg. The card is detected as card=117. Is the card=118 that you mention another part of it?
