I'm interested in who is loaded at 005B:xxxx. Typical things that I recommend that people often forget is: 1) bare OS (no config or autoexec, or at least minimals) which you already have. 2) no BIOS rom shadowing. Usually between these two, I can get most things installed. -- John "Frotz" Fa'atuai frotz@novell.com (email@domain) Desktop Systems uunet!novell.com!frotz (bang address) Group/Novell NOVELL:FROTZ or FROTZ@NOVELL (MHS address) c/o TS Dept. 80 Garden Court 408/649-8209 (fax) Monterey, CA 93940 Semi-official support can be obtained at "drdos@novell.com"
