SuSE 8.1 under generic, acpi enabled kernel
I am running SuSE 8.1 kernel 2.4.19-4GB on a Compaq presario 724 EA.
I want to compile a generic kernel so I can use win4lin on my computer.
I have tried 2.4.19 and 2.4.20 with the acpi patches from sourceforge.net and the win4lin patches.
The kernel compiles fine but will not boot correctly. The system hangs at the message:
" PCI: Using pci configuration 1"
After this it should start the acpi (at least that is what happens when I boot with the SuSE kernel).
The kernel does boot when I enter "acpi=off" as a boot parameter so the acpi seems to be the problem.
I have no idea why though and I dunno how to solve this.
I would appreciate your advice.
