Message-ID: <1992Jul20.084809.28082@cl.cam.ac.uk> Date: 20 Jul 92 08:48:09 GMT Sender: news@cl.cam.ac.uk (The news facility) Reply-To: qs101@cl.cam.ac.uk (Quentin Stafford-Fraser) Organization: U of Cambridge Computer Lab, UK Lines: 34 Sorry, everyone, but I too have totally failed to get Tiny 0.1 to boot. I get the banner message with a line just before it saying something about too little RAM memory (I have 4 meg), and then the screen blanks before I can read it properly and is replaced with lots of flashing multi-coloured characters, and then the prompt ptdi 81061 > appears. Any key I press from here gives: trap type 12 code=fec00000 eip=fe04fdf0 cs=fdbf0008 eflags=10246 cr2 0 cpl ffffffff panic: trap hit reset please Please can anybody help? I have tried unplugging all the cards except the parallel/serial/HD card which also controls the floppies, and I've tried telling the CMOS that I have no hard disks. My system is HP QS/16 Vectra (16Mhz SX) 4 Meg RAM AT-style hard disk Maybe I'll have to stick with Linux, which boots beautifully, but I would like some networking.... ----------------------------------- Quentin Stafford-Fraser Cambridge University Computer Lab qs101@cl.cam.ac.uk Tel +44 223 334645 -----------------------------------
