Hello:
I've just upgraded to MSI915P Combo and Intel P4 P550 but I can´t install linux on this machine, the kernel hungs up and the computer stops responding. On the other hand, Windows XP runs OK. Does any one knows if there is an incompatibility problem with this motherboard/chipset and Linux? I´m trying Fedora Core 4.
Here is the screen text I was able to see:
"do_initcalls+0x4d/0xb0
init+0x0/0xf0
kernel_thread_helper+0x5/0x14
kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init!

do_initcalls+0x4d/0xb0
init+0x0/0xf0
init+0x1d/0xf0
kernel_thread_helper+0x5/0x14"
The computer stops responding at this point.
Since I´m new in linux, I really don´t understand these messages.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks.
Joao
