Help, eh! Date: 28 Jul 1993 23:17:17 GMT Organization: Walt Disney Imagineering Lines: 16 Message-ID: <2371dtINN9mq@marvin.is.wdi.disney.com> Reply-To: sma@disney.com NNTP-Posting-Host: arthur.is.wdi.disney.com Keywords: Compaq won't boot install floppy Ok, I've tried to get any compaq to boot the 0.1 install disk. They just won't! The system will just reboot over an over, never displaying the 386bsd banner etc. I downloaded the kcfloppy-genisa.fs kernel and that would boot up to the point of copy the kernel to your hard disk, then poof, reboot. Any ideas here? Thanks, Steve -- Steve Acheson sma@disney.com Sr. Network Analyst (818) 544-7835 Walt Disney Imagineering 1401 Flower St., Glendale, Ca. 91221
