The following reply was made to PR i386/1809; it has been noted by GNATS. From: Kevet Duncombe <dunc@netcom.com> To: freebsd-gnats-submit@freebsd.org, jkh@time.cdrom.com Cc: Subject: Re: i386/1809: floppy boot code causes reboot of computer Date: Fri, 24 Jan 1997 22:57:14 -0800 ------------36982428B0B0 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Hi.. I tried to install 2.1.5 from the Walnut Creek CD last night. Booting from a floppy gets me to the first boot prompt, but pressing return or -c return causes a reset before it writes any messages. I found P.R. i386/1809 while looking for a solution, and tried using ftp://freefall.freebsd.org/pub/jkh/boot.flp as it suggested. For what it's worth, it didn't help in my case. ------------36982428B0B0 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Type: text/html; charset=us-ascii <HTML><BODY> <DT>Hi..
