TYAN 8-way and Suse Linux 9.3 ?
I have an TYAN (S4881/B4881) 8-way system with 128 GB of memory anthat I am trying to load Suse 9.3 (or 9.2, or RHEL 3 Update 5) on. I cannot get the system to install with the 64-bit install. It always fails on trying to mount the root disk. However, the 32 bit installation goes with no complaints. Only problem, is it loads the i586 bigsmp kernel, and DHCP, USB, etc. don't work. Anyone been successful in getting this beast to load ? I have tried noapic acpi=off module=sata_vm mem=2048M...

You need at least 10.0 or SLES9-SP3 when it's released. -Andi
