Hi all,
I'm trying to build a new duel quad-core server and I'm having some problems.
Just after it loads the keymap, I get this error:
request_module: runaway loop modprobe binfmt-464c
A few minutes later, it panics.
I'm loading from a pendrive that I've used before to build servers, so I don't
THINK it's the installation media.
Some of the search results I got from Goggle (who is my friend, btw) indicated
that it might be a problem with drive labels. After unplugging both drives
and retrying, I'm convinced thats not the case.
Other chatter indicated that I was booting a 32-bin kernel in a 64-bit OS, or
vise versa. Based solely on the name of the failing module, this has some
credibility, but seems like a stretch since I've not changed the pendrive.
Anyone else seen, and fixed, this problem before? Any advise would be
welcome.

Take care and have fun,
Mike Diehl.
