Message-ID: <1992Dec27.060430.25238@netcom.com> Organization: Netcom - Online Communication Services (408 241-9760 guest) Date: Sun, 27 Dec 1992 06:04:30 GMT Lines: 30 Hello world again. After a few months of trying to get 386BSD to install either manually or using the install program, I have notices something. Everytime I run the following the system hangs! vi elvis disklabel newfs zcpio I think that about it... All off of either the dist or fixit disk. I can boot both fine, run ls, stty, sh fine. Could there be some type of memory problem I am having? Some kind of bios setup. I have a 386-40 with the opti chipset and AMI bios. Is there some dos program out there that I can use to debug this? It that possible? Is there a kernal that has heavy debuging code in it avaliable? I mean plenty of printf's and the like? So I can at least see what going on? Is there some keys I can press to get debugging info on the kernal? Help! Glen Collins (glenc@netcom.com) p.s. I have tried to boot linux but the same problem occurs. Now that seems like there maybe a problem with the board, eh? But I don't have the background in 386bsd as the rest of you to deal with this! :x
