Lines: 15 Message-ID: <572qnq$877@news.netusa.net> NNTP-Posting-Host: dev.usbbs.com X-Newsreader: Forte Free Agent 1.0.82 This is sorta feedback to the development team.. I have FreeBSD running on several machines here. I recently downloaded the 2.1.6 boot.flp and FTP'd the code down to build one of my smaller machines.. The machine is a 386DX/40 8 Meg - 200meg HD Mono VGA with AMI Bios.. The machine is about 3-4 years old.. When I tried the 2.2 code, the box locked while it was trying to load the SC0 (I think it is the video card) Anyway it was the first actual IRQ that comes up.. When I did the same thing with the 2.1.6, it loaded fine and the FTP of the files went smoothly and it seems to be fine.. Please keep up the good work, you guys are doing a great job..
