I'm having a problem with Microport's System V/AT running on a Kaypro 286i, maybe someone out there in netland can help me. First, my configuration: Kaypro 286i 640k RAM 30Mb HD 1.2Mb Floppie (one) Everex EGA board NEC Multisync Monitor Sys V/AT "Complete system" I have 2 partitions, 10Mb DOS, 20Mb UNIX. The problem: When I do a "soft boot" with Ctrl/Alt/Del, I get an error message in the middle of the screen: "Unexpected SW Interrupt 06 at F000:0059 Type (R)eboot, any other key to continue" The system hangs at this point requiring a complete power down to fix. Microport's telephone support suggests that the problem is with Kaypro. However, they also point out that they don't have a Kaypro and so cannot duplicate the problem to be sure. Has anybody out there tryed Sys V/AT on a Kaypro? Has anybody ever seen this message? Does it indicate a hardware problem or an incompatibility? Also, does anybody have a nroff/troff printer driver for an Ebson compatible parallel printer? Thanks in advance! Sam Matthews /\|/\ "We put a star sam@lanl.ARPA --> * <-- in a box."
