Hi!

I recently aquired an old server-machine which i though i could run linux
on. As far as too booting it everything worked out very nicely.
When using a Slackware bootdisk (using ibmmca.s or scsi.s) the computer
hangs and starts shewing through de floppy. The message given before this is

"Checking 386/387 coupling... OK, FPU using exception 16 error reporting."
"Checking 'hlt' instruction..."

The machine is a IBM PC Server 500 with a Scsi/2 something Adapter.
Pentium 90MHz with external Math-processor (officially called "Complex
Upgrade Processor")
128Mb RAM (SIMM)
7 MCA-buses

What i am wondering is if anyone on this list have had the same problem and
how you solved it or if anyone have any good ideas and/or links which might
help solving the problem

Sincerely
