[ug-bosug] HP nx6115 : AMD turion 64

[USM Bish]

Recently  procured  a  brand  new HP  laptop,  with  following
general specs: AMD  Turion 64 bit 1.6 gHz, 512  mb RAM with 40
gb HDD, Combo drive.

Linux LFS and Fedora Core 6  installs fine in 64 bit mode, yet
to check things  like wireless etc. I kept  two partitions (10
gb each) for good old OpenSolaris ... but ...

No joy with  Solaris Exprees (build 56),  Belenix and Nexenta.
All three  fail in initial  part of install process  after the
kernel loads. All  three give the folowing  error, which keeps
on scrolling the screen up,  stopping only with physical power
off: "NOTICE: lp0: too many interrupt requests". No printer is
connected.

The system is still new, and suitable for experimentation. Has
anybody faced this type of thing  before ? Can anybody help in
somehow "force" installing  Solaris Express ? I  can bring the
box down to any place/ time at your convenience.
