It might take a little time but that is where distros like Knoppix come in, it loads from a CD, it doesn't change any of your files (unless you specifically tell it that it can) but it does give an insight into what module you might need. Others here may be able to help with the names of the modules they use. > Partition check: > hda: hda1 hda2 > hdb: hdb1 hdb2 hdb3 One of those other partitions may be useful for transferring too - if one isn't used a lot, convert it to FAT and everyone can share it. > IRQ routing conflict for 00:10.0, have irq 5, want irq 3 > IRQ routing conflict for 00:10.1, have irq 5, want irq 3 > IRQ routing conflict for 00:10.2, have irq 5, want irq 3 > IRQ routing conflict for 00:10.3, have irq 5, want irq 3 That sounds more like it. IRQ conflicts are always a real PITA. > IRQ routing conflict for 00:10.0, have irq 5, want irq 3 > IRQ routing conflict for 00:10.1, have irq 5, want irq 3 > IRQ routing conflict for 00:10.2, have irq 5, want irq 3 > IRQ routing conflict for 00:10.3, have irq 5, want irq 3 Especially when they keep repeating! > IRQ routing conflict for 00:10.0, have irq 5, want irq 3 > IRQ routing conflict for 00:10.1, have irq 5, want irq 3 > IRQ routing conflict for 00:10.2, have irq 5, want irq 3 > IRQ routing conflict for 00:10.3, have irq 5, want irq 3 > IRQ routing conflict for 00:10.0, have irq 5, want irq 3 > IRQ routing conflict for 00:10.1, have irq 5, want irq 3 > IRQ routing conflict for 00:10.2, have irq 5, want irq 3 > IRQ routing conflict for 00:10.3, have irq 5, want irq 3 You probably need to get into the BIOS and see if you can manually set the IRQ's - it's awkward and a pain but you won't get a peaceful life until it's done! Try disabling Plug-and-Pray first, reboot and watch for these messages in dmesg. Then change one setting at a time - don't rush this! I know it's a PITA rebooting so often, but believe me, changing too many options at once is a recipe for an even worse problem (like it may not start - at all).

Take a look at http://at.rpmfind.net/opsys/linux/RPM/kernel-source.html to help you make sense of which file you'll need from the CD-ROM's. From that page, you'll need to do: ($ = as ordinary user) $ uname -r This tells you which kernel you are using Then: $ mount /mnt/cdrom (you might have a slightly different location for mounting the cd) $ ls /mnt/cdrom/RedHat/RPMS/kernel-source* Look for the RPM that matches the output of uname. something like: kernel-source-2.4.20-8.i386.rpm Then su to root and use: # rpm -i /mnt/cdrom/RedHat/RPMS/kernel-source-2.4.20-8.i386.rpm # exit $ That bit is easy compared to the IRQ's!
