hi all, got some more information. If I use "fail-safe" login, I can see what's shown on the console: as soon as it passes GRUB, I get the following erroe message: code: 89 c1 44 29 c1 81 f9 ff e0 f5 05 7f 06 89 f8 29 f0 3d ff e0 console shuts up <0>Kernel panic - not syncing: Aiee, killing interrupt handler! This is with the standard kernel on the original 9.3 installation. I believe the kernel version is 2.6.11.4-20a-smp any help on how to get the system up and running is very much appreciated,

I'm building a new dual-core AMD system with the following spec:
AMD dual-core CPU (4200+) with 1GB of RAM, DFI Ultra-D nforce-4 socket-939 MB with the latest BIOS flashed (June 23) Seagate 160GB SATA BenQ DVDRW Chaintech 5200TC video card (PCIx)
With the latest BIOS, dual-core CPU is recognized at POST. MEMtest ran without any problem.
I tried to perform FTP installation of Suse 9.3 using the boot.iso. The beginning of the installation went without any problems: I was able to select the packages, etc., and it grabbed the files from my NFS sever, etc. all is fine at this point.
However, upon the *1st* reboot of the SUSE installation process, the screen just hang (black) after GRUB boot-loader. I had to perform a hard-reboot.
So my question is: does the standard kernel on the Suse 9.3 installation CD support dual-core CPU? I suspect it doesn't and what what causes the black screen.
any help is very much appreciated,
