	Kris,

	It should be.  The PS/1 was basically just a 486 clone with an IBM name on
it.  I think what might be happening is lack of support for the CD-Rom.  It
sounds like it would be one of the older, proprietary CD-Rom controllers.
But, shouldn't the boot disks be able to make that work?

	Boyd, have you tried creating the boot disks and going at it that way?
