Yes, dual CPU. Two mighty 200MHz Pentium Pro...
But no, I don't think the kernel on the CD works.
This failure occurs as soon as I press enter at the initial
prompt after booting the CD.
I've tried "linux memmap=exactmap mem=640k@0 mem=95m@1m rpmarch=1586" at
that prompt, but it doesn't help.
note, 'i' not '1'586, but if the install cd is broken too,
you're out of luck anyway.
What is the message actually telling me?
That someone screwed up the CPU initialisation code.
Can you file a bugzilla on this please ?
