I tried the 2.2-960303-SNAP boot.flp last night, and it repeatedly crashed with the following message, just as sysinstall was about to start: panic: unwire: page not in pmap Syncing disks... My system is a 486DX4/100, AMI BIOS, 24 MB RAM, with an 850MB IDE drive, a 700MB Quantum SCSI connected to an Adaptec 2842VL, and a SCSI Iomega Zip drive as ID#5 on the same controller. Since everything probes properly in the kernel, I suspect this is a bug in sysinstall, perhaps related to the probing of my hard drives (IDE+SCSI combination confusing it?). I haven't tried the older snap, but the 2.1-RELEASE boot floppy works fine. I should also note that my ATAPI IDE CDROM isn't detected by this SNAP floppy either, although it does detect the secondary controller it is on. This is the same behavior as 2.1-RELEASE's floppy, which doesn't surprise me, since nobody has worked on the driver code. Doesn't matter much, since I'll probably buy a SCSI CDROM at the next computer show (1-1/2 weeks away)... Please send help on why this SNAP refuses to boot! ---Jake
