I've now stripped all the equipment out of the machine, except the Diamond

I've also tried rewriting the boot floppy, and using other floppies.
It still reboots while trying to start up off the Rescue disk.

I would try these:

2) Redirecting the stderr to a file when invoking XF86Setup. Hopefully, it

3) Killing XF86Setup with ctrl+alt+BS, or ctrl+c. Hopefully, it will save the

Has anyone had success with installing the rvplayer-installer package?
I have no idea how to do it correctly. I put the rvplayer tarfile in /tmp,
and even manually ran dpkg -i rvplayer.whatever, and it looked ok. However
using rvplayer results in that same Error 71, your rvplayer is out of date

Has anyone had success getting sound to work with a Yamaha OPL3-SA on
a laptop? The HowTo lists the Yamaha OPL3, but my lack of success has
me wondering if the OPL3-SA is different somehow. I pretty consistently

Yes, it is possible, but not without some work. If you want to use a
stable kernel, you need to rebuild a 2.0.33 kernel with the promise_ide
patch in order to recognize the promise ultra ide card. Patch can be
found at http://www.huwig.de/linux/mama/20-newdriver.html. But even then,

OK...I am really wondering if I should wait until next month when Debian
2.0 is released or if I should upgrade now. I have wanted to upgrade
several times before but was unsure just how stable HAMM was. Is it

UNIX power tool, and that it does make sense to have more but not less on a
system.
