:what's going on :-)

	Sorry about that before, I forgot that. Here it is (formatting
will probably be wrong) :

	last ptr: 0x8:0xf01dc20e
	code segment:
		base 0x0, limit 0xfffff, type 0x1b
		DPL=0, pres 1, def32 1, gran 1
	processor eflags
		interrupt enabled, resume, IOPL = 0
	current process = idle
	int mask = bio

	I tried installing it again following Michael Smith's
recommendation to disable the Write Back cache, and when I did I got the
exact same panic (same last ptr and everything) but instead of panicing
while it was idle it said 1 (sysinstall)

:Nice machine...that sb32 pnp will probably give you problems if you can't
:disable pnp...

	Yeah, if it's even possible. I'll check the manuals again but this
may requre a call to Creative.
