Re: PS/2 mod.70/386 install: Failure at first RAMDISK message



Yes I did.  Identical results using two different copies each of the rescue
and root diskettes (that is, on two different physical diskettes each).

The install hangs soon after placing the boot disk into the floppy drive and
pressing ENTER.  The location of the hang corresponds to the end of section
5.3 in the installation instructions for x86 machines.  I've attempted to
troubleshoot the installation process per those instructions, to no avail.
