Yggdrasil wont boot - fall93

I have just got Yggdrasil LGX,Fall 1993 (They're a bit slow out here)

I place the disk in my drive and turn the computer on and it boots:

I see, LILO booting/loading/Uncompressing,
then I have some output detecting various hardware and
calibrating the delay loop.
Then I see some tests for various filesystems (Minix,MSDOS,HPFS etc.)
ALL seem to fail, fair enough but finally I see this:

Unable to handle kernal paging WP error at address c000002d
Oops:     0002
EIP:      0010:0016c47d
EFLAGS:   00010246
eax:00000001  ebx:00000030  ecx:00001800  edx:001d3938
esi:00000000  edi:00001800  edp:00000000
ds:0018  es:0018  fs:002b  gs:002b
Pid 1, process nr:1
86 46 2d 0f be d0 84 d2 74 15

The same thing happens every time I try it.
I have also tried to make another boot floppy using the image from the
CD-Rom but to no avail, it just doesn't work at all. That is, I can write
the image to the disk but it crashes soon after or even before the
"LILO boot:" message.

My configuration is:
   i486sx/25 (running at 33Mhz)  -: 16.61 BogoMips
               ^This wouldn't be the problem would it?
   VLB,  256K cache,  8Meg RAM
   ET4000 compat video (ISA)
   SB16 ASP + Matsushita/Panasonic  CR562B
   fd0 : 1.44M Floppy (and yes, I did put in the 3 1/2in disk :-)
   hda : 60M  (divided into 50M and 10M)
   hdb : 120M (full 120M partition)

This configuration has not given me any problems installing/running
DOS/Windows, nor running OS/2 (though I had problems installing it).
