I running on a 386 Zenith data system. I'm able to mount the hard drive where i have installed the files and they all appear to be in place, when i boot from the floopy again, the system hangs indefinately when i attempt booting from the hard drive. I have the system installed in a 40mb partition (second), on a 42MB magnetic peripherals inc. drive (i assume standard for zenith systems). In the other partition i have dos installed and that will still boot fine after reseting the partition active. Also when i boot from the TinyBSD it won't recognize my ethernet card. (irq 5) , is it supposed to? or does the tiny system only look for drives and monitor and com ports? I also have a second hardrive which is an 80mb seagate formated for dos. I had originally intended to use that for my 386BSD, but couldn't seem to get it to install there, is it possible? Any help or suggestions you could provide would be greatly appreciated. <* Ed Zielinski *> ANR Computer Services , Mich State Univ. zielinse@msuces.canr.msu.edu (Please respond via email due to the number of messages i'd need to sift thru on here to find any replies.
