Help,
We are trying to install NetBSD-1.1 on an i486/ISA PC, Seagate 520M IDE drive.
model ST3660A
We have run 1.0 on EXACTLY the same setup with no problems, however with 1.1:
After the inst-fs floppy is inserted, it gets to the following:
wd0: using 16-sector transfers, 16 bit pio, lba addressing
and there it stays.
We have booted other systems about the place using these floppies, all
reporting some sort of chs addressing, with various length transfers.
Any hints? can we disable LBA mode?
Thanks,
