Hmm. That still didn't work, although the new kernel booted just fine. I
still got an Oops message right after I selected the drive to install to.
Could this be a swapon problem? I also have an internal floppy/floptical
drive (this also appears on the select drive list). Could this be
throwing things off? Does this work for R4600 processors?
Here's my hinv output:
