 Ran in to a problem for the first time.  I have 2.2.5 residing nicley 
on a 520 meg drive with booteasy installed.  For some reason, I can no 
longer get past the PCIC check during bootup.  I get the follwong 
message  "wd0s1c: wdstart: timeout waiting to give command reading fsbn 
1wd0: status 0 error 0" followed by the same with "error 1 <no_dam>". 
 I can't even use a boot floppy to get the install screen...the system 
just hangs after the PCIC check.  If I take the HD out or put a 
different one in (like my win95 drive) it boots off the floppy fine. 
 Thinking that it could be a booteasy problem I attempted to remove it 
with fdisk /mbr..but there was no chang (booteasy still there).  I also 
tried to install  OS-BS off the CD with no effect.... I"m open for 
suggestions...
