I tried that, but it didn't work. Perhaps this hints to a bad image? I'll try booting with the same diskette on another PC... > However, I don't think your 2940U is the problem.

The PC is a Compaq Deskpro 6000: PPro 200, 64 MB Adaptec 2940U SCSI (IRQ 11) w/ one 4.3 GB disk attached. ATAPI PD-CD (The CD shows up as /dev/hdc on Slackware) Matrox Millenium graphics card, IRQ11 SMC EtherPower 10/100 (Tulip-based) Ethernet card. PS/2 mouse. Any help greatly appreciated. I've been using Slackware since 1994 (and SLS before that), and was looking forward to trying out Debian. -- Peter Galbraith, research scientist <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Maurice-Lamontagne Institute, Department of Fisheries and Oceans Canada P.O.
