All suggests this is not a kernel issue, but within the bootloader failing to setup the boot process correctly.

So, what's your suggestion about where this bug might linger?

Answer both questions with 'y'. Then it says: Initializing gfx code... mem area 0: number1 - number2 mem area 1: ... ... Please tell me those two numbers (or just make a screenshot - whatever is easier for you). Does it work if you turn off the display size detection (answer second question with 'n')? Does it work if you skip graphics completely (say 'n' to the first question)? -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.

Could be the 16MB-hole problem seen in bug 211094.
