Hardware identified and changed in the config at boot. Trying to install from a MAT-CD 562. The hard disk is partition into 3 slices and each is labeled wd01a, wd01b (swap) and wd01e. When commit is executed, the following error occurs: DEBUG> Starting Emergency holographic shell over the 4th screen. And then it traps FATAL 12 supervisor write to page, page does not exist. Machine subsequently boots. Can you please suggest a partitioning and labeling scheme for a 200 M IDE drive. I wold like to use X-Windows as one of hte options. I am devoting this machine entirely to u**x with no partitions for DOS. Thank-you in advance. Please reply to both myself and Bob as we are both working on this project.
