Hi fellows,
I'm still trying to boot my dual AMD 1800XP machines (not MP).
I got one more step disabling MP 1.4 support on BIOS setup, but now
(using 2.4.19 kernel) I have a more general question.
The boot phase stop exactly with the message:

Partition check:
hda :

Should I consider that the kernel stop exactly in this point or
should I take in account any buffer problem,if yes shloud I
put a flush in any point, maybe a after printk statments?

Thank you in advance,
Scorpion.

Go Linux, go free!

it stops exactly between this printk and the next (unreached) one.

See fs/partitions, probably read_dev_sector hangs so put printk's
around that.

Does it works with one CPU taken out?
