Yeah, I noticed this same thing. When I tried options MAXMEM="256*1024" I got the same thing. I kept tring to reduce it; I cant remember what I was able to get it down to, but when it did finally boot the machine would lockup after awhile. I than kept tring to reduce it and it finally stabilized at options MAXMEM="128*1024" I have not had the time to determine where the problem lies. Anybody else have any comments? Currently my system is a Pentium Pro 150Mhz with an adaptec 3940UW PCI scsi controller with a 9Gig drive. Now that the system is stable it smokes.
