Just wanted to know if anyone has problems installing BSDI on a Compaq Proreliant. We're using an Adaptec 2940 with 2 4 Gig drives. It boots fine on the floppy and recognises everything. We installed it specifying the bios boot blocks.Then it goes through the installation and installs all the disksets. When we try to boot off the hard disk it hangs with a message like: /boot - unexpected trap Protection fault I'd appreciate any ideas. Cheers, Marcus.
