Got it working, the problem was with the A/UX partition, i created it
with silver, and it was a 3.0 partition. I was reading the web page and
found that you have to use A/UX setup 2.0. Once this was done it started
to work fine..
This brings me to another question.. I have 36MB of RAM, how big shoul
my swap be? currently i have 550 to A/UX root & usr, 18 to swap, and i
have about 650 as a mac partition..
