When booting from the floppy, it gets past the device detection stage and then hangs at the following point: changing root device to fd0c panic: double fault syncing disks... at this point the machine is locked and requires a hard reset. Any Ideas on what may be causing this? This machine has previously run 2.2.0 without a problem. Thanks, Dave DeLaune freeunix@firstdial.com
