To All, I would like to thank you all for the help provided so far and thank you in advance for an any additional help and ideas you provide. At this point I have been able to successfully complete an install and setup the services I wish to run on this system. My installation will be complete once I resolve this final issue. The kernel (ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/ppc/kernel/2.4.2/zImage-2.4.2.chrp) which I was able to complete the installation with. Only has support for a single processor. My RS/6000 7025 F50 (CHRP) is a four processor machine. The following information is from my system running the functioning single processor kernel. ---------------------------------------------------------- uscalamia-ss-10:~ # cat /proc/cpuinfo processor : 0 cpu : 604r clock : 332MHz revision : 1.0 bogomips : 332.27 zero pages : total: 0 (0Kb) current: 0 (0Kb) hits: 0/0 (0%) machine : CHRP IBM,7025-F50 uscalamia-ss-10:~ # --------------------------------------------------------------- uscalamia-ss-10:~ # cat /proc/version Linux version 2.4.2 (root@CHRP-PReP.suse.de) (gcc version 2.95.2 19991024 (release)) #1 Mon Jun 4 11:44:59 GMT 2001 uscalamia-ss-10:~ # -------------------------------------------------------------- uscalamia-ss-10:~ # dmesg 8 sym53c875-3-<10,0>: tagged command queue depth set to 8 sym53c875-3-<11,0>: tagged command queue depth set to 8 sym53c875-3-<12,0>: tagged command queue depth set to 8 sym53c875-3-<13,0>: tagged command queue depth set to 8 sym53c875-4-<8,0>: wide msgin: 1-2-3-1. sym53c875-4-<8,0>: wide: wide=1 chg=0. sym53c875-4-<8,0>: wide msgout: 1-2-3-1. sym53c875-4-<8,0>: sync msg in: 1-3-1-c-f. sym53c875-4-<8,0>: sync: per=12 scntl3=0x90 scntl4=0x0 ofs=15 fak=0 chg=0. sym53c875-4-<8,*>: FAST-20 WIDE SCSI 40.0 MB/s (50 ns, offset 15) sym53c875-4-<8,0>: sync msgout: 1-3-1-c-f.

After approximately one screen of kernel messages I receive a "Stack overflow" error and the system no longer continues booting. I am unable to complete a boot with this kernel.
