I didnt give up and I tried all kinds og combinations. I noticed when I was booting off the CD (for the tenth time I think) that the install kernel was 32 bit so I opted for that one a I got further. I actually got so far as it began installing packages, but crashed at random places in the package installation. I then loopback mounted the ISO image and NFS exported it and did the install via NFS and then finally it worked. Then when I had the system up and running I was adding extra packages (telnetd, openssl and openssh) when it crashed again. I now have it in a pretty good state. Ive "apt-get upgrade" every package and installed all the development environment and compiled yesterdays kernel snapshot. bofh:~# uname -a Linux bofh 2.4.9-pa24 #2 Fri Sep 21 20:40:31 UTC 2001 parisc unknown bofh:~# uptime 16:29:35 up 19:10, 1 user, load average: 0.00, 0.00, 0.00 Not a single crash since I booted the new kernel so Im very hopeful that Ive gained some stability.
