Hi.. I tried to install 2.1.5 from the Walnut Creek CD last night.
Booting from a floppy gets me to the first boot prompt, but pressing
return or -c return causes a reset before it writes any messages.  I
found P.R. i386/1809 while looking for a solution, and tried using
ftp://freefall.freebsd.org/pub/jkh/boot.flp as it suggested.  For what
it's worth, it didn't help in my case.
