I've got a Packard Bell Force386sx with the Phoenix 80386 ROM BIOS PLUS version 1.10 01. I'm also using a 200 Mb Western Digital HD and a Seagate 40 Mb HD, both IDE. When I try to boot, the disk drive just keeps going (no banner message or anything), and just sits there. I've tried the original 0.1 dist.fs bootable, then the 0.2 patch kit bootable (from agate.berekeley.edu, patch-kit directory), and finally the dist.fs bootable with the ATT-HP Vectra patch in the unofficial/newbootables/terry/old directory. Any hints would be greatly appreciated. Eric ewong@wiliki.eng.hawaii.edu
