- Has anyone been able to get 0.1 to run on any 486 machine based on
- an OPTi chipset? If so, are you using the 486SXWB or 486WB motherboard?
- I think I am experiencing bug BOOT009 in Nate Williams's bug list version 0.2,
- where all of the boot floppies lock up the system after displaying the initial
- copyright message (before listing any devices found). I have an OPTi 486SXWB
- motherboard (486DX-33, 06/06/91 AMI BIOS). Please, I really need help with
- this! Also, if no one has found a fix, new buyers should be warned away from
- this motherboard (or chipset)! Thanks.
