After I use rawrite to make the installation disk, I reboot the system. And it hangs without printing any message. But I can boot with it on other machine. I reviewed the compatibility list, and found almost of them are compatible: 1. Adaptec AHA-1542CF SCSI card.(1 SCSI disk) (0x330,IRQ 11,DMA 5) 2. Normal I/O card (IDE,FDC,2S1P) (all default settings) 3. Promise EIDE Max (secondary, IRQ 15) 4. Creative Sound-Blaster pro, DSP version 3.1 (0x220,IRQ 5, DMA 1) 5. NE2000 compatible card. (0x300,IRQ 10) 6. ISA ET4000AX video card. Though computer hangs, the floppy drive is still light-up. I've installed Linux, and it can boot and install normally. Can you help me what the problem is and how to solve?
