User Feedback :: various problem with DSL 3.0

What changed starting in 3.0 was the addition of ACPI power management modules. From your printout it appears that your computer does have and tries to use ACPI. So, do try the various ACPI=xxx options. acpi=off, or acpi=force, etc.

Notice in the original post "Failed to create socket directory" under 3.0 and unionfs.

Notice that it does work with 3.0.1 and no unionfs. It looks to me like there were file system issues as originally stated by kerry and the switch to no unionfs fixed the problem (hence socket directory could be created).

I have had no problems with my compaq armada 7800 and 3.0rc2 but I don't have acpi (actually I turned it off in the bios). There may be an issue with the knoppix-autoconfig making a change with acpi detection on your system that affects the file system and confuses unionfs at the start which shows up later. It may not even be related to acpi but just unionfs or unionfs and something else.
