Yup. I had to comment out the aha0 line from the config file (and make a new boot floppy) to get 960323 to boot on a Micron P66 with either a BT747D (EISA) or BT956CD (PCI). Want a boot.flp? It is not exactly the GENERIC kernel so it may or may not work for you (commented out most of the network drivers except the ones I needed, etc.). andrew
