Jason W:
Thanks.  If 2.5 and it's kernel pose no problem, then it seems like the kernel image.

If you haven't already, testing the 2.5 kernel on the 2.6 RC like bmarkus did would help nail down the culprit.

roberts:
Just curious, what boot loader and which version are being used for those experiencing issues with 2.6?
Does updating your boot loader help?

I'm just booting straight off the plain .iso. No other bootloaders, no hard drive, and 512MB ram.

The kernel image has been upx'd in this RC.

After 8 hours running Memtest-86 v3.5 (Pass: 10) no error found. It will run for longer time of course....

After running it for 18 hours I stopped memtest. No errors found.

2.5 with 2.6 kernel is freezing too. So it is up to the new kernel.

Updated BIOS, no change.
