Field Note #1 @reyrodriguez 2010-09-21

IEE 1394 or Firewire

Have you got any Firewire or IEE1394 add on card or on-board adapter?

I was trying to install iAtkos and got the same behavior when booting up and saw something about OCHI related panic, so I took the firewire card out and installed just fine.

Hope it helps...

Field Note #2 @xmath279 2010-09-22

Try with the flags: cpus=1, cpus=2, cpus=3, cpus=4 (depending on the number of cores you have).

If it still doesn't work try Wake=n. Try them together (cpus =1 Wake=n).

Try booting in safe mode (-x)
