"boot net:dhcp –p": Error: Cheetah error trap taken afsr[ ] Error: TPC[ ] TNPC[ ] TSTATE[ ] Error: M_SYND(0), E_SYND(0), Privileged Error: Highest Priority Error() "Unmapped error from system" Then a bunch of D-cache, I-cache, and E-cache errors. And finally, Kernel Panic – not syncing: Irrecoverable deferred error trap BTW, my co-worker eventually got a gentoo CD working (2006.1 minimal IIRC).
