Can you please send me the binaries as I still have no luck. Still I get random Exceptions or reboots shortly after displaying 'My IP is...'. However(!) I did see attempts at loading ldlinux.e64 and more in the logs. <<< Please try Gene binaries; if you see attempts to load ldlinux.e64 then the multi-nic issue seems to be solved. I have seen problems similar to the one you describe now when I was building under Ubuntu, since I moved to Debian 7 problems stopped. Best, Patrick

Side note: sounds like there's yet other negative build interactions around. -- -Gene

By the way, I'm booting from the first port. I also tried booting from the last port, with the same results.> Sent privately. > > Side note: sounds like there's yet other negative build interactions around.Maybe, but your binaries also crashed in the same way. I'll attach a "script" log of the IPMI session. In the tftpd logs I can see it loaded everything up to bootlogo.png. Just like my own build of e466d24. The frustrating thing for me now, is that I still don't know how far into the boot process it got. The 'AslInformation' that keeps reappearing in the stack traces doesn't say me a lot. Is it doing something ACPI related? How come the previous build also crashed in the same way without loading even ldlinux.e64? Could it be a display initialization routine that causes the crashes? -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
