DOS and Windoze 95 do boot, but not being SMP aware, this does not say more than FreeBSD booting and running fine with UNI kernels. I tried to install RedHat 8.0 but it would hang already with blinking keyboard LEDs right at the beginning, and the distro CDs I have don't have anything to create modified boot floppies like in the old days of RH. Given that this box was built to run Windows NT SMP way back when, I did buy a copy of NT on ebay for a few bucks, but haven't received it yet. I'll report back once I know whether this works.
