[64studio-devel] unable to boot 0.9.5 on dual opteron machine.

Hi Ben,

Please do - I've installed the latest kernel package 
(http://people.64studio.com/~free/linux-image-2.6.18-1-multimedia-amd64_2.6.18-3_amd64.deb) 
on the dual Opteron test box (Tyan S2875 board, dual socket 940) and 
it's booting and running fine. It could be this booting problem is 
confined to specific motherboards, depending on the chipset used. 
However, I will try a clean install of 0.9.6 to make doubly sure.

Cheers!

Daniel
