I recently inherited an old HP (Pavillion 7125) from a friend as a "fee" for helping him move. It runs at about 133mhz with 16megs of RAM. I decided to try to set up dsl on it for fun. That is all I really know about the box, except it had Win95 on it prior to my receiving it.
When I try to boot from CD (even in failsafe) I get a message about an EIP error and a kernel panic.
Any ideas what this means? I have SuSe 9.0 on another computer but have never had any problems booting this system, so I haven't seen this error before.hi I had same problem check md5 sum of your damnsmall.iso file if it's not correct dawnload it again damnsmalluser (sorry for my bad english)I had the the same problem, I solved it by adding a few parameters which aren't described anywhere (but are with other distro's)

goodluck and DIE trying ;) (managed to solve this little pinguin in about 8 hours of googling, trying, drinking a shitload of coffee and doing a lot of meditation while trying every option when it booted)
especially signed up for this problem, so I hope it works .... else it was for nothing
