Hi, I ftp'd the 2.1.5 boot floppies, and the serial ports seem to work Ok. But now there is another problem. With only the CD-ROM drive plugged in on the secondary IDE port (with CD-ROM in) it is not recognised at boot. It I plug a disk drive in as well, both disk and CD-ROM drive are recognised. The CD-ROM then reports not ready and the installation sequence hangs. This seems peculiar behaviour. Well of course that's not critical as I don't have a 2.1.5 CD-ROM any have to install via sio anyway, but it would be nice to get it functional in the long term.
