Boot with -c, say 'flags sio2 0x80', then 'quit', and send us the probe messages for sio2. You can get at them after the ssytem has booted with the 'dmesg' command. I suspect your internal modem is failing to respond quickly enough to be probed; this is a common fault which reflects very poorly on the modem's manufacturer. -- ]] Mike Smith, Software Engineer msmith@atrad.adelaide.edu.au [[ ]] Genesis Software genesis@atrad.adelaide.edu.au [[ ]] High-speed data acquisition and (GSM mobile) 0411-222-496 [[ ]] realtime instrument control (ph/fax) +61-8-267-3039 [[ ]] Collector of old Unix hardware.
