/proc/cpuinfo says:
model name: Celeron (Coppermine)
So my configuration for the first 5 main menu items that are enabled in makeconfig are:
* Prompt for developer and/or incomplete code/drivers
* Select only drivers expected to compile cleanly
* Select only drivers that don't need compile-time external firmware
* Support for paging of anonymous memory
* System V IPC
* BSD Process Accounting
* Sysctl support
* Subarchitecture Type (PC-compatible)
* Processor family (Pentium-II/Celeron(pre-Coppermine))
You can pick the Pentium-III here, since you have a Coppermine core
Celeron. But this will almost surely not be any part of the solution to
the problem.
I turned this off. I'll report my findings shortly.* Preemptible Kernel
* Machine Check Exception
* /dev/cpu/microcode
* /dev/cpu/*/msr
* /dev/cpu/*/cpuid
* BIOS Enhanced Disk Drive calls determine boot disk
I'd turn this off, just to see if it makes any change. It says it is
"believed to be safe", but it is experimental, and your controller BIOS
almost surely does not support it.
I have all the ACPI stuff enabled and no APM enabled. I do not have ACPI debuggging statements enabled.* Power Management support
*Full ACPI Support (minus the ASUS Laptop Extras and Toshiba Laptop Extras)
Do you see anything in that list which I should look into ditching first?
Other than the EDD setting, I see nothing. What do you have in the next
choice after ACPI, the APM stuff?
Also, can you see anything on the screen before it reboots? There isIt says Uncompressing kernel....................gives the message saying the uncompression is done and then reboots. The time between finishing the uncompression and rebooting is about .1 sec.
nothing after "Uncompressing kernel..."? Just boom, it reboots?
There isn't much that can trigger a reboot that early on.I figured that, which is why I am asking for help about where to disable things?
