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 Jonatan Rullman Head of .Net-project, Swedish National Roleplaying Association IT-grouip jonatan@sverok.se; jonatan.rullman@swipnet.se; bill.gates@hotbrev.com; jonatan.rullman@ht00.jkpg.johnbauer.nu
