P4P800-VM and Linux

[Frank]

Hello

my new P4P800-VM Board doesent run with 1GB Memory.
With 512MB it runs fine

I have test with different Memory Moduls but the sam effekt.

Under Knoppix i get some CDROM Errors and strange Erorrs when im using many Memory.

Under Suse Linux it hangs when the System try to mount the Filesystem.

On Installation it hangs when yast try to put the Files on the new FS.

The System
P4P800-VM
Memory Kingston Value RAM
CPU 800 FSB 2,8Ghz 1MB Cache

Under Windows XP everything runs fine (or i dont see an error)

Has the Board an Error ?

Hi

that was one of first things .. BIOS update

I have verifyed the Problem

Under Linux Kernel 2.4 (Suse Linux)you get the Problem
The Onboard Grafik Card makes Trouble

As Workaround I use a Nvida Geforce Card in the AGP Port.

I hoppe that Kernel 2.6 Solve the Problem
