Hi,
I ftp'd the 2.1.5 boot floppies, and the serial ports seem to work
Ok.  But now there is another problem.  With only the CD-ROM drive
plugged in on the secondary IDE port (with CD-ROM in) it is not
recognised at boot.  It I plug a disk drive in as well, both disk
and CD-ROM drive are recognised.  The CD-ROM then reports not ready and
the installation sequence hangs.  This seems peculiar behaviour.
Well of course that's not critical as I don't have a 2.1.5 CD-ROM
any have to install via sio anyway, but it would be nice to get it
functional in the long term.
Thanks
Stuart Arnold
