So I reinstalled CentOS on alpha last night and currently it is installing virtualmin and webmin, following a "yum upgrade"...
However, there were a few kernel panics while starting up this morning and I have had a sequence of kernel panics, segmentation faults and such like since it first booted correctly.
This will be down to either memory or hard disk. The hard disk is an ancient 20gb and it may be time to replace it. But with what? It doesnt support anything larger than 127Gb, so I may have to dismantle my ancient NASLite+ box (which I stopped using a few years back) and steal disk from there. Which may end up with me replacing all the 40Gb drives I have in various boxen with the 120s (as there are 4 I think!)
In other news, installed CentOS 5.5 on a Tyan S2098 (Tomcat i845GL) but have been having terrible issues with the network cards. They are Intel but not had any joy getting them to negotiate with my Netgear router. But that could be down to the router being shite of course... I shall grab on of my other switches and see what it makes of it all (cos then I wont be swearing quite so loudly while the missus is trying to watch TV!)
