Hello,
I have here an epox athlon slotA via board which refuses 2.4. On Redhat 7.0 kernel 2.4.2 (or was it 2.4.1?) made the system slow (fsck the 2GB disc took
around an hour). 2.2.x runs fine.
Installing Redhat 7.1 results in Sig11 or Sig7 in anaconda.

Anyone with the same problem?

Since it is a productive system, I can't probe much myself :(

Werner

PS: Any idee, why an athlon with 512 MB RAM, a 100Mbit Tulip, rh7 and 3 halflife sessions has
only a local hl-Ping of 100-500? Are there knows memory lacks or similar? I first thought this
system as overkill, but the users report bad pings and e.g. lacks when someone only logs in with
ssh :(

Have you tried to disable "Power Management" (especially "ACPI support") in your kernel configuration? Does that solve your problem? Have you tried "linux-2.4.3", yet?

HTH!
