I've read about positive results on the 'net, but I've not had any luck. I've gotten the thing to boot a windows installation CD, but it refuses to boot from any of the FreeBSD (3.2 and 4.5) and linux CDs (RH7.3) I've tried. And yes, the CDs are bootable. Seems it only seems to like windows. I would boot from a floppy, but the drive's wrecked. What magic do I have to perform to get this thing going? Thanks in advance. PS. Please CC: me as I'm not subscribed. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: PGPfreeware 7.0.3 for non-commercial use iQA/AwUBPSmkv+hz+6gkNePcEQLcOwCfZmZ9rLXlbBfrx3zdTUXomt6JuuUAn159 Cu5mZJVtLhr+XObL9cL/WsHM =7t+N -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-mobile" in the body of the message
