I have installed this on my AMD64 3700+ HP zv5000z laptop. Works fine.
(Not quite an Opteron, I know, but close.)
No problems with crashing. Updates from yum are problematic. Some things
seem to be missing and/or have odd library dependancies. (I have not
spent the time to track it down.) Other than that and the modules
directories for X changing location, it has gone pretty well.
Description of problem:
I get PANIC errors when booting FC5test1 disc1 x86_64 on an AMD
Opteron. I get the 'boot:' prompt at the bottom of the welcome
screen, but after I press enter and it loads the kernel and the
initrd, the screen clears and displays:
.
kernel direct mapping tables upto ffff810100000000 @ 8000-d000
PANIC: early exception rip ffffffff8063b05d error 0 cr2 4228
PANIC: early exception rip ffffffff8011d1de error 0 cr2
ffffffffff5fd023
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
FC5test1, so kernel-2.6.14-1.1696_FC5.x86_64.rpm
How reproducible:
100%
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Boot disc1
2. Press enter
Tim.
