Doug, Phil Further to my messages on this subject - I have now tried booting the 2.2.5 generic kernel direct from a boot floppy on my Cyrix M2-MMX and get the same kernel panic message as I get using install in DOS - once again, it's OK on my 486 (I built my system off it) (So you're right Phil - it is damn all to do with EMS/VCPI etc) Bob Hall In message <Pine.BSF.3.96.980322235740.12642h-100000@gdi.uoregon.edu>, Doug White <dwhite@gdi.uoregon.edu> writes >On Sun, 22 Mar 1998, robert w hall wrote: > >> My attempts to boot the generic distribution kernel have to date >> foundered on a kernel panic message - fatal trap 9- general protection > >Paitience, my son.
