Re: Oops when installing on HP Brio

[Richi Plana <richip mozcom com>]

Hi,

I can't seem to install RedHat linux on an HP Brio machine. Whether I use
RH5.2 or RH6.0, the result is still the same: the kernel panics and
returns with an Oops.

The hardware is fine (it's sporting an Intel Pentium II processor, etc.
etc.) and I can install and run Windows 95 and FreeBSD on it properly.
We've tried switching from an IDE harddisk to a SCSI harddisk, but the
problem doesn't seem harddisk/controller related as it still Oopses.

This is probably kernel related, but I'm hoping someone on the list has
already figured this out. If it IS kernel-related, I hope someone posts it
on the list as I don't know what supporting chipsets this motherboard
uses.
