5.2-BETA: Instant crash (GPF) on Primergy RX300

[Matthias Andree]

Hi,

just for the fun of it, I booted 5.2-BETA kern.flp/mfsroot.flp on a FSC
Primergy RX300 (1 Xeon, 512 MB RAM) with ServerWorks Chipset, onboard
Dual Adaptec 79XX (unused, disabled in BIOS), 2 * Broadcom 5704 and LSI
MegaRAID 320-1 (69 GB net RAID5 FWIW). It instantly died with a GPF
after having read the mfsroot.flp.

Is there BTW an installation kernel/mfsroot/whatever stuff that can be
PXE booted or can I generate one from an existing installation?
I find floppy images (or D/L-ing like 200 MB install ISO) ever so
inconvenient.

The same hardware is fine under SuSE Linux 9.0, here is the lspci (think
pciconf):

I may be able to capture the boot logging by booting "headless"
tomorrow. We'll see.
