Everything went fine untill the end (where else) I received a panic error "Panic: cannot mount root". Any suggestions? I am using a 486 with a Mitsumi CD-ROM, an IDE controller with two Maxtor drives. I tried to install to the second drive, with the boot manager installed on the first drive. I followed the directions for the installiation except for the /dos in the h partition. Any help is appreciated. Tom Drake
