Installation worked well; everything was installed to /dev/sd0s1a. After a reboot, however, the kernel loader tried to load 2:sd(2,a) rather than the correct 2:sd(0,a) - I suspect there is a bug in the installer, causing faulty kernel settings under certain circumstances. The only other partition (slice) on the sd0 disk is a Linux ext2 one. LLaP bero -- Windows 98 supports real multitasking - it can boot and crash simultaneously. *** Anyone sending unwanted advertising e-mail to this address will be charged $25 for network traffic and computing time.
