Okai i have done some digging and talked to some people on irc and get it booed by putting an enty floppt in the drive so i get the bootloadet up , then i type da(0,a) and it boots up and stops in the midle of the hardware probe and thereafter dumps me in a 'mountroot' shell. I have some idea this might be becase it did'nt detect my onboard scsi, in order for that to work i need to type 'eisa 12' just after i pressed a button with the 'booting kernel in 10 secons yadadadad'. But that dos'nt appear anymore?! (the 'booting kernel in yadad' that is) how do i get that back so i can set the 'eisa 12' parameter? Its a totally fresh intallation...
