>Release:        2.2.2 from Walnut Creek CD ROM
>Environment:
>Description:
Version 2.2.2 boot floppy will not boot on AMD K6 machine (boots 
correctly on my K5).  It gets to the end of the device polling,
then, after the message about switching root to floppy, it 
gives "Panic: Double Fault".
>How-To-Repeat:
Always occurs
>Fix:
Workaround:
Boot from 2.2.1 floppy, install 2.2.2 onto hard drive from CD-ROM.
There is no problem booting 2.2.2 off the hard drive once installed.
