I am trying to install Debian 2.1 using a rescue disk on a Toshiba Satellite Pro 440 laptop. I made the rescue disk with RAWRITE2.EXE. After the boot messages with all the dots (.......), the system shuts down. The system previously ran Windows 95 with some boot loader that let me specify a hardware configuration. Maybe that has something to do with it? Lewis LIB@BCPL.NET
