kernel panic on Buster instaltion was created by laisch
Hi!
I am struggling to install the newest LinuxCNC Release 2.8 (Debian Buster Image).
On my old PC which I plan to use for my future CNC build I am only able to boot the Live (failsafe) version.
When I am trying to install or boot the normal live mode, I get a Kernel Panic after 1 minute or so.
The ISO seems to be OK. I can boot the Life mode on my Laptop.
For now I installed the official Wheezy Image and it is working well. But since I don't really want to run an end of life version I am hoping that someone can give me some tips to get Buster running (installing).
Some infos of my machine:
Pentium D (15/4/7) 3.00 Ghz
2x 1Gb DDR2
1,5TB
I used the official released Buster ISO burned on an USB device with rufus.
BIOS:
SMBIOS 2.3
Version 6.00 PG
Best Regards
Thomas

Thx for the fast reply 
I also tried a Deb10 Dvd (not linuxcnc) burned by a friend of mine wich lead to the same result.
That was also the first thing I read in an other forum. So i tried it with all types of variations with 1gb and 512mb I had laying around, by switching them around on the 4 slots. I also run a memtest for more then 2 hrs without any errors. I stayed with thw 2x 1gb configuration.
That was somehow the plan if I put a PC in my garage to also use it also for other stuff.
That's an argument! Yes I am planning to run the cnc via LPT and my badest latency I got was about 30000ns when I stressed the pc.
I am not sure if I will stick with LinuxCNC when finishing this project or try some Arduino based controllers with gbrl. That's why I don't want to invest in a Mesa card for now and stay with what I've laying arround for testing.
So the best thing in your opinion is to stay on wheezy and see the pc as what it is, just a cnc controller?
Checksum was ok. I also burnd the Image on different usb devices with different tools and slightly different settings.First check the md5sum of the downloaded ISO file.

That type of kernel panic is usually due to failing memory modules, ...For what it is worth it is safe to run a distro that is end of life for Linuxcnc. Just don't use it to browse the interwebs.

f you are looking at using the Parallel Port Wheezy maybe your best option, if of course you are not getting good latency with Buster.

Yep, just let it be a cnc controller.
The beauty of using the parallel port, if you are careful with your wiring, swapping between grbl & linuxcnc could be as simple as a cable swap between the 2 and your controller box. I think after testing the 2 you may feel that Linuxcnc shines.
