2.6.0-test1: Hang during boot on Intel D865PERL motherboard

Hi,

I've compiled linux-2.6.0-test1 kernel with the attached "config" file. When trying to boot the kernel, it hangs on "Uncompress Linux kernel...OK". The system is:

Intel 3.06Ghz Pentium IV
Intel D865PERL motherboard
ATI Radeon 7000 VE

I've tried with SMP and UP, but the kernel hangs anyway. The attached "config" contains the minimal set of drivers I can think of that could lead to a bootable system.

Curiously, Red Hat's 9 Stock kernel does boot perfectly with SMP and enables HT successfully. However, RH kernel doesn't seem to recognize the built-in SATA controller.

Any ideas?

Thanks!

You only have the dummy console selected ensuring you have:

CONFIG_CONSOLE_VGA=y

Should display things to screen.

I should add please read:

Which documents this and other things to expect.

Yeah! I'm stupid... I forgot to check that. Thanks :-)

Hang or blank screen?

Known gotchas.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Certain known bugs are being reported over and over. Here are the
workarounds.
- Blank screen after decompressing kernel?
  Make sure your .config has
  CONFIG_INPUT=y, CONFIG_VT=y, CONFIG_VGA_CONSOLE=y and CONFIG_VT_CONSOLE=y
  A lot of people have discovered that taking their .config from 2.4 and
  running make oldconfig to pick up new options leads to problems, notably
  with CONFIG_VT not being set.
