I've done a FTP install of 2.2.2-RELEASE (2.2.5 soon) on a machine with a DPT SCSI HBA using the boot.flp from ftp.i-connect.net/crash. Post-install reboot fails ("Read error"). Looks like the kernel with the dpt0 driver did *not* copy over. I have/can get the system up with a boot & subsequent fixit floppy (the fixit from 2.2.5-RELEASE) but how can I get that DPT-enabled kernel (containig the dpt0 driver) onto the root of the boot hd? If I can get someething there that will allow me to boot without a floppy, then I can make & install a customized kernel. Please rsvp via e-mail; my news server is down. I'll summarize to relevant newsgroups if desired. Many thanks, Ken Cochran
