Comments/Problems:
When Booting from install-power4, the boot process
freezes when trying to load the floppy module. In
expert-power4, I can deselect the floppy module and
get to the partition disk stage. After partitioning
the disk and creating the file system, the screen
blanks and freezes. Also, I'm still getting the
"NewWorld boot partition not found" error even with a
1.9 MB boot partition in the second partition.
