Subject: Trouble installing SLS
Date: Mon, 7 Sep 1992 06:58:49 GMT


Hello all,

Yesterday I installed my new HD (234MB!!!!), and thought I could now
re-install Linux from the SLS disks. I didn't come very far, though.

Somewhere during the "Loading RAM-disk ...." the system hangs.
I have installed Linux before, using the MJ-package without any (real)
problems. Although I didn't use this installation very heavily, it
seemed to work without problems.

Does anyone have an idea about what might be wrong? I could use the MJ-
stuff again, and use the SLS-disks 3-15 to complete the system, but I
would rather be able to install from SLS only.

System information:
no-name 33MHz 386; Cache chip set
AMI bios
4MB

Thanks,
Rob Hegt

By the way, can anybody tell me what 'write precompensation' is. It is one
of the fields I have to fill in in the HD set-up of the CMOS.
