I decided to move to the bleeding edge this weekend and install the latest
SNAP (940202). So, I made a backup, pulled down the boot disks and
installed.
The install went okay, until I tried to reboot from the hard drive. The
kernel loaded okay, but then came the following:
...
npx0 on motherboard
npx0: INT 16 interface
changing root device to sd0a
Fatal trap 12: page fault while in kernel mode
fault virtual address = 0xf006800
fault code = supervisor read, page not present
code segment = base 0x0, limit 0xfffff, type 0x1b
= DPL 0, pres 1, def32 1, gran 1
processor eflags = interrupt enabled, resume, IOPL=0
current process = 0 (swapper)
interrupt mask =
panic: page fault
Please hit reset button
Well, I then tried to reinstall, and then noticed that when I brought up
Fdisk, it said my geometry was 2810c/4h/94s. I had a hard time convincing
it that my geometry was indeed 2800c/4h/94s (as reported by the drive).
Finally, I simply installed DOS after which it decided my geometry was
516c/32h/64s, which I could live with. So, I reinstalled, which went
fine, and I then tried to boot from the hard drive:
...
npx0 on motherboard
npx0: INT 16 interface
changing root device to sd0a
Fatal trap 12: page fault while in kernel mode
fault virtual address = 0xefbf7938
fault code = supervisor read, page not present
instruction pointer = 0x8:0xf0155b1d
code segment = base 0x0, limit 0xfffff, type 0x1b
= DPL 0, pres 1, def32 1, gran 1
processor eflags = interrupt enabled, resume, IOPL=0
current process = 0 (swapper)
interrupt mask =
panic: page fault
<reboot in 15 seconds or hit a key>
So, I am falling back to 2.0R for the meantime. I have a plain-jane
486/33 motherboard with AMIBIOS, AHA1542B w/ two floppies, 3 serial, 1
parallel, and an SMC Elite16. The hard drive I was installing onto is a
Conner CFA540S.
Let me know if I can be of assistance,
Marc.
