Hi, I have one of these motherboards as well. It is a master2-far from MSI dual opteron 240. I experience random lockups (complete lockups) for no reason it seems. I am running SLES 8 AMD64 and have not found a solution yet, although I have made a support request through the suse portal and am waiting for a response. You might try acpi=off as a kernel parameter to try to boot the machine, have you tried safe mode? Best regards JPF On 29.11.2003, at 22:45, Stephen Varga wrote:
Hello all. I recently purchased an AMD Athlon 64 w/ a VIA K8T800 chipset. I had a successful install from the SUSE 9 pro dvd. Yast detected everything from the Sound Card all the way to the built in ethernet. Everything worked and was detected flawlessly. The system seemed useable until I rebooted the machine. The machine hung at bootup around the "cpufreq" process. I tried safemode and the same problem occurred. During a second re-install I have upgraded the kernel over through Yast to the latest "bugfix" version provided by SUSE and that didn't seem to help either. Are there any other reported issues with this VIA chipset? I currently have Mandrake AMD64 9.2 RC1 working with no problems. I would like to get the SUSE Pro 9 working, but this situation leaves me no choice. Thanks for any feedback. I appreciate it.
