Any advice? I am a PS2 addict - and 'am running an IBM Server 500 (128Mb RAID SCSI2 F/W 10x2.21Gb Complex 4 9595a planar - I have hard wired in some parts which have it running at 200MMX Mhz now... but apart from that as spec.) which is the final evolution of MCA. I am currently running NT 4 & Backoffice on it - and it works fine - but I am looking to put SuSE on it. There is plenty of redhat support for PC500 boxes - but v. little suse. I understand due to the fact it is not edge triggered and becuase the complex has a cache controller that there are complexities..... I have gotten around the locking up on the checking HLT instruction by using linux no-hlt at the boot floppy boot: prompt - but now it stops at initialising the TCP/UDP/ICMP protocols - ARGH! Can anyone advise? .....well - no ask - no find out!
