Subject: loader locking up with 3.3-release

I am trying to install 3.3-R on an Intel FX based Pentium Pro machine
and the boot floppy keeps locking up on the BTX loader.

BTX loader 1.00 BTX version is 1.01

is the message I get.  The floppy drive light stays on but it is stuck
there.

A 2.2.8 floppy works fine.

Any ideas?  Is there any way I can get to the loader prompt from the
boot prompt?

Thanks,

Tim
