Hopefully this is just a misconfiguration in the kernel, but here's what happens when I boot up this box.

Code:
IA-32 Microcode Update Driver: v1.14 <tirgran@veritas.com>

apm: BIOS version 1.2 Flags 0x03 (Driver version 1.16ac)

apm: overridden by ACPI.

audit: initializing netlink socket (disabled)

audit(1116702733.793:0): initialized

inotify device minor=63

Installing knfsd (copyright (C) 1996 okir@monad.swb.de).

NTFS driver 2.1.22 [Flags: R/W].

lp: driver loaded but no devices found


The system stops there and does not continue. This happened the first time after I finished setting up this stage1-based system, so I have not been able to successfully log into this box (unless I use the livecd).
I'm gonna mess around with that kernel config again and see if I notice anything...

I did a little modifying in the kernel and now I'm a little further...

Code:
audit(1116704628.455:0): initialized

inotify device minor=63

Installing knfsd (copyright (C) 1996 okir@monad.swb.de).

NTFS driver 2.1.22 [Flags: R/W].

lp: driver loaded but no devices found

hw_random: RNG not detected

Linux agpgart interface v0.100 (c) Dave Jones

agpgart: Detected an Intel 845G Chipset.

agpgart: Maximum main memory to use for agp memory: 202M


And it stops there. Any ideas? :?::?:

My next two lines are :
Code:

agpgart: Detected 8060K stolen memory.
agpgart: AGP aperture is 128M @ 0xe0000000


So im guessing that you need to look at your agp settings, ie enable support for your Intel card.

I dont have your exact hardware, but i do have a intel crap/card..
