After the install (it went fine) I rebooted the system and when it gets to the spot to start init, it dies with a floating point exception. I have installed 2.2.1 on a 486DX50 and a Pentium 85 with no problems. It did not make any difference in what kernel I tried, GENERIC nor a 2.2.1 compiled kernel (the same config file as in 2.1.x) It also did not make any difference if I booted multi user nor single user. I wound up installing 2.1.7 on the system instead. Any ideas? - Jim Pirzyk -- --- @(#) $Id: dot.signature,v 1.3 1996/01/25 02:07:09 pirzyk Exp $ [Jim] pirzyk@fa.disney.com -------------------------------- __o System Administrator, Walt Disney Feature Animation Florida _'\<,_ at Disney MGM Studios (*)/ (*)
