One of the cleaning people at my office yanked the power on one of my machines overnight. They had the foresight to plug it back in, but when I got back in the morning, it was hung. Rebooting with a custom kernel, generic kernel, fixit floppy or setup floppy all suffer the same fate. The machine hangs after detecting the npx0 defice (FPU, afaik.) I never see the "Intel Pentium Processor detected" line. I've successfully booted DOS and Win95 boot loppies on this machine, but that isn't a "real" test. Does anyone have any ideas as to what may be causing this? I was plannin on upgrading to 3.2-RELEASE this weekend, but won't be doing that until I caan get his machine up and get the data off it. Please e-mail me at matt@gsicomp.on.ca. (I don't have newsreader access now that my machine is down.) If you're in Canada, call me at 1-800-217-5409, if you can spare the time.
