Before I did the kernel upgrade mentioned elsewhere, I reconfigured my RAM.

I removed a pair of 512s to insert a pair of 1 gig sticks.

It wouldn't complete booting with any kernel I chose. The machine will work with a single gig stick. This RAM works fine in another machine with the same motherboard, but is running Windows.

/var/log/messages doesn't have anything from the failed boots. The failed boots stop some time after the message:

memory for crash kernel (0x0 to 0x0) not within permissible range

I initially thought that was the error, but on the successful boot, I saw that message as well.

Is this another place where the remote console stuff would help?

Could you please add "debug" option into kernel commandline? in this case kernel logs could be more informative.
And please tell us kernel version.

thank you,
Vasily Averin

A BIOS upgrade that wasn't available before fixed this issue, though I still have a bunch of other ones I'm trying to sort out.
