Hi Mark,
I didn't feel right about putting untested code up for the innocent to
trip over, particularly newcomers, so I decided to try booting the
bootdisk I created by recompiling with scsi enabled (I only have scsi
drives). I experienced some errors with the ramdisk, as I feared might
occur
Hi Mark,
I have some good news, and I have some bad news.
THe good news first. I do have a boot disk for you. (details below)
THe bad news is that since I'm removing scsi support (this was reported
to be the problem, see

The only lead I had to a location for slink 1440 floppy images gives
an error now. Maybe someone else will come up with a URL.
I'm afraid you will probably need someone with more in-depth knowledge
than me to solve the problem.

Not sure what the original post is, but you might want to check the MB
compatibility HOWTO. I had a SuperMicro P5MMA98 board and I found out that
it had a BIOS glitch that pissed Linux off. I was able to download a flash
upgrade and then Linux installed perfectly.
