Allright,
I've tried to load for setup (after install) from my most stable distro (hazard) with empire EFI, which ended with a 'blue screen crash' - this attempt must somehow broke my xp installation on another drive - windows crashed all the time, bios checked, cables - something must have been affected..
On another note: common displayed error messages while trying to get to 'Setup' (the whole install process works with most distro's) and booting with the -v option were:
- jnl: unknown-dev: flushing fs disk buffer returned 0x5
- Still waiting for root device
I would welcome any suggestion of further pinpointing to the cause of these problems.
more specs (from my system):
- nforce 4 pro chipset
- 2 x amd 246 opteron
- install HD is IDE
Thanks,
davan
