Hi,
Initial floppy install with 5.2.1.
We have 12 PCs for a classroom which are completely identical. They =
have a P4P800-VM motherboard with updated BIOS. The CPU is Intel 2.8 =
GHZ. For the strangest reason, the install worked on 1 machine and =
failed on all the others we tried it on. It is NOT the diskettes as we =
are using the same physical install diskettes for all these machines. =
We thought it may be a BIOS problem - we checked the functionning system =
against all the other system - they are identical. We have one other =
system which is different than the others and the install went also =
fine.
Now, the install works without a problem with 4.10 floppies. Any idea? =
It seems to fail before is starts to detect the pci-isa bridge but it =
was not an issue with our first machine.
pci0: <serial bus, SMBus> at device 31.3 (no driver attached)
pci0: <multimedia, audio> at device 31.5 (no driver attached)
