  1. I just installed Mandrake 10CE on my system. Installation goes without a hitch, but upon reboot, I get this: "L99 99 99 99 99 99 99 99 99" ... and so on for about half the screen. System setup: Asus P4C800-E Deluxe motherboard Using the onboard Promise 378-based SATA-RAID controller with two 80GB SATA drives Partitioning done during install using drakX /boot is ext3 RAID1 on /dev/md0 / is reiserfs RAID0 on /dev/md1 /usr is reiserfs RAID0 on /dev/md2 /home is resierfs RAID0 on /dev/md3 swap is RAID0 on /dev/md4 LILO is installed to /dev/md0 I suspect LILO is having trouble installing the bootloader to the RAID device, but I set it up for mirroring, so both HDD's should have a complete bootloader, right? Also tried to install to only one disk, but accidentally wrote LILO to my windows array (identical HDD's, Intel ICH5R SATA-RAID controller), same results at boot. I was so happy that Mandrake finally supports my SATA controllers... I have been unable to run any form of Linux on this box for a year because there was no support (at least at install) for either SATA controller! Now that they're supported, I'd really like to get it running!
