Hey,
I have a very odd problem with an Acer Aspire 1691WCLi. This laptop will
simply not boot with any Debian precompiled kernel, with the exception of
Debian's 2.4.27-2 initrd kernel. I have compiled my own kernels, using a
vast array of options, 2.6.11, 2.6.12, 2.6.12.3, 2.6.13-rc4 and 2.4.27,
they also all fail in exactly the same way. I have tried with and without
initrd, acpi, 386 or other processor options, as well as very lean,
stripped down kernels. I have tried with both lilo and grub, but both
result in the same hang.
Lilo or grub boots the kernel, and I see the classic:
boot: vmlinuz
Loading vmlinuz.................................................
BIOS data check successful
Uncompressiong Linux... Ok. booting the kernel.
_
That's it. A screencap can be had here, although it does not tell much else:

Debian's 2.4.27-2 boots fine, and this is what really annoys me. I took
Debian's 2.4.27-2 initrd config from /boot, ran make oldconfig on a fresh
2.4.27 tree (some minor options were different due to Debian's
backpatching). This image _still_ would not boot.
Does anyone have any suggestions? If needed, I could compile a few more
kernels, change GCC versions (if anyone thinks that would help) and so on.
However, my goal here is to get 2.6 working in order to support various
bits of hardware on this laptop.
There are very few bios options to change. :/
Pentium M 725, 512M ram.

I have the same machine, and FC[234] all boot fine, but the damn sound
doesn't work. FC3 just didn't work, FC4 hangs if I use "play test sound"
but otherwise works.

Hey,
I have a very odd problem with an Acer Aspire 1691WCLi. This laptop will
simply not boot with any Debian precompiled kernel, with the exception of
Debian's 2.4.27-2 initrd kernel. I have compiled my own kernels, using a
vast array of options, 2.6.11, 2.6.12, 2.6.12.3, 2.6.13-rc4 and 2.4.27,
they also all fail in exactly the same way. I have tried with and without
initrd, acpi, 386 or other processor options, as well as very lean,
stripped down kernels. I have tried with both lilo and grub, but both
result in the same hang.
Lilo or grub boots the kernel, and I see the classic:
boot: vmlinuz
Loading vmlinuz.................................................
BIOS data check successful
Uncompressiong Linux... Ok. booting the kernel.
_
That's it. A screencap can be had here, although it does not tell much else:
http://be.back.l8r.net:8000/no_boot.jpg
Debian's 2.4.27-2 boots fine, and this is what really annoys me. I took
Debian's 2.4.27-2 initrd config from /boot, ran make oldconfig on a fresh
2.4.27 tree (some minor options were different due to Debian's
backpatching). This image _still_ would not boot.
Does anyone have any suggestions? If needed, I could compile a few more
kernels, change GCC versions (if anyone thinks that would help) and so on.
