- Seeing as we provide the Australian archive for 386BSD, I thought it was
- about time I got a box up and running. The only "spare" non-PS/2 box I
- could get my hands on was a Compaq Deskpro 386/20 with a 300Meg ESDI and
- 6 Megs of RAM.
-
- Well, things get about as far as the "boot beep" and that's it. The
- boot process starts but last about 2 seconds (ie. loading the bootstrap.
- Nothing makes it to the screen). At that point, the system reboots.
-
- I have tried the same floppy on a Deskpro 386/25 with the same results.
- Booting the floppy in a Toshiba 5100 laptop comes up fine.
-
- Has anyone got 0.1 to boot on a Compaq Deskpro?
