As an experiment I tried to upgrade a spare machien that I had 3.4 Stable on to 4.0 The machine in question is an HP Vectra 486/66. All seemd to go well untill the final reboot. Now it jangs (hard lockup no response to keyboard input) on reboot. The last thing it prints is "doing network setup hostname" This is followed by a cr/lf, and it hangs there. If I cycle power it is able to fsck the disk and return to this point where it locks up again. The network card is a 3C509 (ep driver) in an ISA slot. I can simply load 4.0 on this machien to resolve the problem wiht it, but I have a couple of other amchines that I would much rather upgared than re-install. Any debuging sugestions? -- Stan Brown stanb@netcom.com 404-996-6955 Factory Automation Systems Atlanta Ga. -- Look, look, see Windows 95. Buy, lemmings, buy! Pay no attention to that cliff ahead...
