But the PC always reboots a few seconds after displaying the rom bios copyright. I've read bsd.faq very carefully and read nearly everything related in this newsgroup -- nothing seems to help me. I think it a problem of the 4 extra k that this machine uses for the rom bios. I tried the instructions recommended in bsd.faq but they are for an american setup program - I have a german one. Has anyone an idea to get rid of these 4 k ? ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Henning Brockfeld u4901ac@sun7.lrz-muenchen.de Institute for economic geography University of Munich -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
