I have two harddrives a 1.2g and a 540mb... Im setting the second hard drive up for BSD however after I go through all the motions in the install. Partitions, labels, source from CD...ect I do the big confirm and the process starts.. Its able to setup the FS and dirs then the screen sits for a half minute befor poping up a panic and informing me its going to reboot. The box here is a P5 75, 32mb EDO RAM, ATI Graphics pro turbo 2mb VRAM, PAStudio 16 sound with trantor SCSI, Plextor double spin SCSI. The OS/2 boot manager is in a 1mb partition on the wdc0 in two other partitions on same drive is OS/2 V3 & WIN95 all working fine. wdc1 540mb drive is good, The partition I set up is under the 1024th cyl. kschafer@kuentos.guam.net
