The computer is an old ACER pentium 1 that was made in 1996. The exact details of its specs are not on the acer website. I don't know which channels, but there is a cd-rw drive on one channel as master and an old 1.5g hard drive on the other as master. I believe that it can't map the cd drive and the only thing strange about it is that it has been replaced because the original cd drive, while still in working condition, can only read factory discs. If I try to boot from the floppies instead it displays slightly different messages etc but locks in the same place. If I just boot from the cd with no bcdl floppy I recieve this screen: CD Loader 1.2 Building the boot loader arguments and the system locks there instead. If I boot from disc1 instead the same thing happens only when I use BCDL (I think that the boot from cd part of the bios doesn't work. If I don't use BCDL it sits at the same building the boot loader arguments screen. I don't think that is a part of the cd. If I boot in Safe Mode I get the same result. Any other info needed should be emailed to me at arew264(at)gmail.com >How-To-Repeat: Put the miniinst cd into the cd drive and use the BDCL (boot cd loader) floppy to boot from it. >Fix: >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted:
