And after I downloaded the entire SNAP to a Zip disk (and successfully installed it on the Pentium there), I get this same problem at home, the same problem I had with the last SNAP! > My machine is an AMD486DX4/100 with an IDE hard drive and 16MB mem. > This occurs after all the devices are successfully probed and > sysinstall is loading.

Any help solving this problem would be greatly > appreciated. Thanks in advance. My system is similar: AMD 486DX4/100, IDE + SCSI hard drives (Adaptec 2842VLB controller), 24MB RAM. AMI BIOS, S3 VLB video card, 28.8kbps internal modem, Soundblaster 16. I noticed that if I press ALT-F2 right after Sysinstall starts, I can see the debugging messages all the way up to "DOS slices found" before it hangs. PLEASE FIX THIS if you can, kernel hackers! This is the second snap in a row to do this.. :-( :-( I will try to build a -current kernel myself and see if it works when I boot from the hard drive without sysinstall, or if it crashes too... ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Jake Hamby | E-Mail: jehamby@lightside.com Student, Cal Poly University, Pomona | System Administrator, JPL ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
