The PC is old-ish, but not overly so. (I think its a P75). (Linux and WinNT installs fine on this machine). I created the boot floppies and got as far as configuring the kernel drivers. (I believe this is just prior to hardware probing). I hit 'Q' to save and quit, then get the following screen: avail memory = 10481664 (10236K bytes) Preloaded elf kernel "kernel" at 0xc05e7000 Preloaded mfs_root "/mfsroot" at 0xc05e7084 Intel pentium detected, installing workaraound for F00F bug md0: Preloaded image 2949120 bytes at 0xc0315b98 md1: malloc disk npx0: on motherboard npx0: INT 16 interface pcib0: on motherboard pci0: on pcib0 atapci0: port 0 x3f4-0x3f7, 0x1f0-0x1f7 at device 1.0 on pci0 atapci0: Busmastering DMA not supported panic: resource_list_alloc: resource entry is busy Uptime: 0s Automatic reboot in 15 seconds... And thats it. The CDROM doesn't fire up or anything. The machine just reboots, then starts over. Can anyone help? Thanks in advance.
