[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1808056, member: 56379"] I'm still wondering if something "funky" happened during the running of Windows & doing the Linux install right around the time the kernel panics started. Usually if the KP's are something software/OS based...booting from a problem-free secondary HD will solve things. If something like this happens (not hardware based KP's)...and booting from a clean/problem-free external HD doesn't help...then I'm thinking something firmware-based could be the issue. For example...if a firmware update/upgrade was applied...and it was either the incorrect firmware upgrade...or something happened in the middle of a firmware upgrade (computer was shut off for example)...then maybe these KP's could be the result. Of course many times KPs are hardware based (many times bad RAM based)...and RAM was already mentioned as swapped out by the OP. if this situation is a hardware based KP issue...then maybe it was an unfortunate coincidence that these KP's started at the same time as the Linux install. - Nick [/QUOTE]
