There is actually a bug in the ATA driver since 4.X branch came out, I
have been having this problem with 4.0, 4.1, 4.2, and 4.3, it always hangs
in there, and sometimes gives me a fatal trap, I have wrote several times to
the author of the driver, sendeing him a boot -v, fatal traps, and all of
those things, he replied once to try a patch, but it didnt worked and I have
never heard of him again (Im copying him in this mail). You cant use the
cdrom in the Netfinitys 5000īs, you will have to install the system with
floppy disks.
Greetings...
Ales
