Nntp-Posting-Host: beamlab.ps.uci.edu Message-ID: <bob-220992125245@beamlab.ps.uci.edumB> Newsgroups: comp.unix.bsd Organization: university of california, irvine Lines: 21 Date: 22 Sep 92 20:42:33 GMT Followup-To: comp.unix.bsd 386bsd boots from a syquest on a 1542b, but after a bit of playing the machine refused to reboot, saying files couldn't be found. Fdisk claims bad magic, so I guess it's fatal. Question is, did this happen due to my error (failure to shutdown properly), or do I need some special settings for the 1542b? at present, I think most settings are default out of the box: BIOS on, DMA off (I think) Floppy on Parity untouched, but seems to work any ideas? thanks bob
