I'm having trouble getting 1.1 to boot off either hd of the following
hardware
HP VL4 5/90
BIOS GT.07.15
850Md IDE drive 1654c 16h 63s
Adaptec 2940/2940W SCSI card
2Gb SCSI disc (3703c 9h 125s)
Everything seems to install correctly, but I just cannot boot from
either hd. The error message is "Read Error".
I've read the FAQ (I didn't understand all of it :-( ) and it looks
like the something is misreading the partition information. I've got
"Standard" translation set in the BIOS, but this doesn't help.
Is there anything else I can do?
TIA,
Nick
