Using the boot floppy images that boot fine on both my PII-366 and K6-3-450 systems on the IBM hangs while probing the system. It gets to PNP and locks up. I must disconnect the battery to get the system to free up and reboot Windows 98. I didn't see any indication of any specific problems I need to worry about, but I'm hoping that I missed something.
