I cleared off both SCSI disks with Adaptec's scsiformat program. I then reloaded my Novell Dos 7 partiton. I loaded the snap boot disk, booted, fdisk'ed bsd partitions and disklabeled the pair of disks. I then found that it would cleanly install up to the point of the cpio disk removal and reboot. I pulled a panic with trap type 12. Has anyone else seen this. I've had so many problems I went out and tried to load Slackware 2.2 from my InfoMagic rom to check the hardware -- and I found it spits all over the ext2fs file systems. (looks like a slackware problem... I'm going to try slackware 2.0) I tried turning off all internal and external caches. Does anyone know what the clock delay info on the Phoenix bios on the 486 ISA bus systems does.... Their own docs don't mention it.
