Bug#31367: boot-floppies 2.1.4



Package: boot-floppies
Version: 2.1.4

Impossible booting an IBM Thinkpad 770E laptop.

Get message Loading Linux .....................

and then an hopelessly blinking cursor forever.

The A20 Gating Failed problem on same laptop does not appear anymore
(did until 2.1.3) maybe because now kernel is zImage.

Please note that The boot/root floppy "tomsrtbt" diskette at the current
level (1.7.102 http://www.toms.net/rb/) gladly boots and runs the same
machine more than happily ... if only our beloved Debian used Tom's
kernels (just an hint ;->).

Happy 1999 and please help me getting Debian also on thus 770 !!!!
