Greg,

It is failing at random places, so it must be hardware. Any suggestions for 
what could be the most likely places to look?

Another question - I have my CD ROM as master on my secondary IDE 
controller.
It is not detected by atapi.flp when you boot from the floppy, BUT if I put 
it as slave on my primary controller (with my hard disk) it is detected. 
 When I installed my system, I installed the kernel developer system.  It 
did not install X.  I would like X.

Since I cannot get my kernel to recompile until I fix this problem, can I 
boot up using the floppy, then do a Custom installation from the main 
installation menu and just install the X-Server software and have all of my 
other previously installed software remain the same?

Also is there something like a DOS command prompt I can go to when I boot 
up with the floppy?  The reason being I would like to come up in command 
prompt, go to the live file system and copy the kernel.atapi binary.

As you can probably tell, I am relatively new to UNIX, so please bear with 
me :)

Anil
