I'm trying to use the latest boot.iso in the Fedora Core development tree, and it's not getting very far in boot. I've tired it on 3 systems, 2 of which fail early in boot, though with a bit different messages. the Sony Vaio Z1RA dies very shortly after uncompressing the kernel with this call trace:
inode_alloc_security alloc_inode init_file __pnp_bios_get_dev_node pnp_bios_get_dev_node build_devlist pnpbios_init do_initcalls init_workqueues init init kernel_thread_helper
Code: Bad EIP value
any ideas?

I get the exactly same error since a couple of weeks ago with 2.6 kernels from rawhide. It was all fine before that.

Does booting with 'linux pnpbios=off' help? If so, you can add dmidecode information to https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=112326

There's a fix in the kernel bugzilla for a load of 2.6 pnpbios explosions btw
