Hello, Some days ago I posted a problem about 42. installation. I tried many times to install it, all apparently successfully, but none ended up being bootable. I dedicated the whole disk to it. With "not dangeriusly dedicated" I saw nothing at all. With "dangerously deciated" I got "Read Error". I ended up installing a small Linux system and using Lilo, with success. 1 or maybe 2 other people reported the problem. I posted it in "stable", so I will try it here as well. Somebody replied to me offering to help, unfortunately I seemed to have lost his/her message. If they are out there could they contact me again. Or if anyone else hs any input on this. The PC is a very ordinary old P90, which I use as a test machine, and many installations of Linux and BSD 4.0 have worked well on it.
