I took a 3.0 kernel #3 floppy and tried to install 3.0 on two systems
and both failed:
1. System:
PCB Motherboard , Amd 386/40, Cyrix FasMath (w/ or w/o)
8 MB, IDE IBM DHEA 38451 (16384/16/63)
The most I could achieve was booting up into blue install screen
mode but got hung during probing devices (only NE2000, VGA and IDE
controller present, nothing fancy).
2. System
ASUS P55T2P4, same HD, but also SCSI disks and a Syquest removable
medium. P5/200, 128 MB, xl0 network device.
Symptoms:
at boot: prompt there is a long beep (for a second or so)
finds xl0, SCSI disks but wdc0 and wdc1 are not found !.
(although the HD is there in the BIOS)
Comes up into install mode, but when choosing custom->partition
there are No disks found.
