However, after proceeding with the install (which seemed to go through without a hitch), I pressed ENTER to reboot and got the following messages just after my WD8003 was detected: vm_fault (fe071c9c, 0, 1, 0) -> 1 type c, code fe060000 trap type 12 code = fe060000 eip = fe0127a cs = 8 eflags = 10282 cr2 14 cpl 1a panic: trap The operating system is saving a copy of RAM memory to device 1, offset 0 (Hit any key to abort): [ amount left to save (MB) ] -- device bad system rebooting (I sat here for many reboots to get this message down!) Anyway, can anyone give me any clues as to what goes on ? The system is: Dell 325p (386 25MHz) 4 MB RAM 190MB IDE drive. On-board Paradise VGA (512Kb) 3.5" HD floppy (0) 5.25" HD floppy (1) COM1 + COM2 (On-board) Also I have an SMC ethernet board (WD8003), but I took that out and it didn't make any difference. The system seems to work fine off the floppy. ......
