Re: Booting (and Installing) my noname axp33pci
Wow... after a bit more looking around in the archives I had also seen
this... but I still couln't get it to work... after some more
looking/reading I found out I had to wait some time before pressing return
to load the ramdisk...
So now i even ejected the cd, reloaded it, waited for all the leds to
finish flashing... waited some more... pressed enter... presto..
I go back to reading my mail... and tada... replies.
Thankx... it worked... even before I read this mail...
Mark
P.S. I'm at a familiar 'system installation' screen now... I'll manage
from here I think...
