Has anyone ever tried to use a Gateway 2000 computer that has a "RIDE" BIOS.
I believe it was GW's attempt at IDE improvements (Rapid IDE) before EIDE.

I know, this computer's just an old 486, but it'll make a heck of an IP
router...

The reason why I ask is that the install is failing after partitioning and
formatting, just as the base (bin/aa) packages are extracting. I think it
might be a write vs. BIOS issue.
