Hello: I'm trying to install 3.0 on some old hardware: 386DX-40 8mb RAM AHA-1542B 1.3g SCSI drive I put in the floppy (network install), boot up. (Floppy image is copied direcrly from the ftp site.) The kernel uncompresses, I get past the config editor, and the [F1] screen says: Probing devices, please wait (this could take a while) ... The [F2} screen finds and adds the serial ports, then emits: DEBUG: found a disk device named da0 and then ... nothing. Even if I wait for several hours. The machine does not hang - if I Ctl-Alt-Del, it offers to abort the install. Anyone have a clue? Is there any way to get the install program to cough up more details about where it is and what it is doing?
