No boot. This is after I obtained the 2.2 SNAPSHOT (May 1) from work so I can actually load from the atapi CD anyway. anyone know why it wont actually boot ? I'd really like to continue with this os, but if I can't get it to actually boot, well... any help will be gratefully accepted, and slanging about being a newbie will almost certainly put me right off this thing for good. I'm not. thanks for any help, cheers, Bob -- The China House Sheng Huo Jiu Shi Dou Zheng robert@chalmers.com.au for Whirled Peas http://chalmers.com.au Location: Web Works Whitsunday. 21'7" S, 149'14" E.
