Hi all,

I picked up an Intel Desktop Board D410PT today with the intention of using= it
to run 9atom but I am finding that it panics on boot regardless of any swit= ches
I might set in the BIOS:


PBS1...Plan 9 from Bell Labs
ELCR: 0E00
pcirouting: South bridge 8086, 27BC not found
cpu0: 1668 MHz Atom loop 57601
apm ax=3D10 cx=3D14 dx=3D4150 di=3D1200 ebx=3D469 esi=3D0
found 16 e820 entries
panic: floppypos: zero geometry

Press almost any key to reset..


I am a little surprised because other NM10 chipset boards have been reporte= d to
work on the site, and even the Intel Desktop Board D510MO is rumored to wor= k,
which is a fairly close cousin of this D410PT.

Has anyone encountered this before or am I out of luck?

Best,
