- I tried these disks, but I still can't install BSD 0.1 on my Zenith
- Z-386/25.
-
- Machine info:
- 150M ESDI drive, wd ethernet card irq 2/9, vga, com 1, com 2.
- 386DX 25Mhz, no fpu.
-
- Install info:
- install using the patched and non-patched dist.fs disks. When
- installing, it seems to write to the hard drive fine. If I
- hit ^C when it wants to reboot, I can mount the filesystem and
- everything seems to work. However, it locks during reboot.
- The keyboard lights flash, and the floppy light stays on. It
- requires a power cycle to make it come back to life.
-
- Details:
- partition 1 is a 100M DOS partition.
- the rest should be BSD-386. I plan on NFS mounting most everything
- from a DECstation.
