I've tried the CD version, the DVD version and the Live CD version of 11.1. I've checked all using MD5SUM before and after burning the .iso.file. In all instances I get an error that reads ....This kernel requires and X86_64 CPU but only detected an i686 CPU, unable to boot.
I have an MSI K8N Neo4 Main Board,AMD Athlon(tm) 64 Processor 3200+. I'm able to run Opensuse 10.2 and 10.3 X86_64 versions.
I've been looking everywhere Google directs me by have found nothing that pertains to my problem.
How do I get past this error when attempting to install 11.1?
It sounds like a bug in the kernel's CPU verification code. I don't think there is a way around it (although you could try looking in your BIOS to see if there are any CPU features turned off that could be triggering the bug) It would be good if you reported this in bugzilla, preferably together with the contents of /proc/cpuinfo from one of the systems that will boot on it (you can get that from the rescue system) Anders -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
