Running 2.1R, finally getting around to a 2.1.5 upgrade.
So I make a boot disk:
mount /dev/cd0a
cd /cdrom
dd if=floppies/boot.flp of=/dev/rfd0
Then attempt to boot it.
It starts to boot fine, looks like it probes all the devices,
but before I can get a good look at the last few lines,
the screen clears and I'm left with a block cursor in the
lower left corner. Nothing seems to do much of anything,
no response to keyboard input, no disk activity.
I need a clue...
This is on a micron p-100, 16M, bus logic scsi controller, but
I don't think it's even close to messing with the disk yet.
