- Hello world again.
-
- After a few months of trying to get 386BSD to install either
- manually or using the install program, I have notices something.
- Everytime I run the following the system hangs!
-
- vi
- elvis
- disklabel
- newfs
- zcpio
-
- I think that about it... All off of either the dist or fixit
- disk. I can boot both fine, run ls, stty, sh fine. Could there be
- some type of memory problem I am having? Some kind of bios setup. I have
- a 386-40 with the opti chipset and AMI bios. Is there some dos program
- out there that I can use to debug this? It that possible? Is there
- a kernal that has heavy debuging code in it avaliable? I mean plenty
- of printf's and the like? So I can at least see what going on? Is
- there some keys I can press to get debugging info on the kernal?
- Help!

- p.s. I have tried to boot linux but the same problem occurs. Now that
- seems like there maybe a problem with the board, eh? But I don't
- have the background in 386bsd as the rest of you to deal with this!
