I'm not familiar with the way this error message is generated, but I "assumed" (oops, maybe that's where I went wrong) that the error said ".0x3" instead of "0x340" because that's what was given to the boot prompt. However, if this is not a typo on your part, either in the boot parameters or in your report of the error, then in the immortal words of (I believe) Rosanna Rosanna Danna, "Never mind" :) On Sat, 12 Dec 1998, David Herbert wrote: > No typo I can see..?..? > > David > > Kent West wrote: > > > > It looks like either a typo in this posting, or you made a typo at the > > boot prompt.
