I've also just started moving to Potato and was trying the 2.2.12
(kernel-image-2.2.12_2.2.12-4.deb) and 2.2.13
(kernel-image-2.2.13_2.2.13-1.deb) kernels, creating a boot floppy,
and getting exactly the same problem, with the same message over and
over again:
0400
AX: 0212
BX: 7000
CX: 5001
DX: 0000
I'd also welcome any suggestions as to what the problem is?
Cheers,
Graham
