hi there,

I just installed FC2 on an Athlon64-3000+ in 32bit-mode.
I don't want to go for 64bit until its really stable.

It runs fine with the defaul 2.6.5-kernel but with 
kernel-2.6.6-1.435.2.3 it freezes during boot.
At first it shows a small error (in 2.6.5 too) "Failed to allocate mem 
resource" then stays there for a while,
then tells "starting nash ..." and thats all. With 2.6.5 it continues 
afterwards without any problems.

Any ideas which could cause this? I would really like to use the 
2.6.6-kernel as it has powernow-k8 built with it ;).

Some specs: athlon64-3000+, 1 GB Ram, Matrox G550- graphics, SATA-HDD.


TIA,

Thomas
