Hi All,

I've used FC2 test 1 and 2 without any problems previously. However when i now try to boot the FC2 (release), it won't even load the kernel, but instantly reboots my system

It get's to the Loading vmlinuz... then loading initrd.. Then, boom, reboots.. (thats just before the "Uncompressing Kernel.." message)

ps i did download the first cd again (from a diff mirror even), burned 2 more copies, checked MD5's.. but nothing's wrong with the media. As mentioned, test 1 and 2 worked fine on this machine, and the hardware didn't change in the meantime

My system details:
P4 3.0 Ghz (HT) Cpu
Intel 865PE + ICH5R chipset
Maxtor 6Y080P0 80Gb (set to ATA 100) HD
3Com 3c9x Network card
ATI 9800XT (8x agp) graphics card
SB Audigy (with intergrated IEEE 1394 controller)
Plextor DVDR PX-708A dvd/cd drive

Anyone got any clue and/or hints of whats going on here and how i could get this to work? With the corrupt partition table bugs i've had with previous FC2 test versions, i would rather not use those to install..
