When I try this, it gets to the part where it requests the second floppy and then prints the following over and over: --------------------------------------------------------------- .+ [ -b dev/floppy/0 ] + mount dev/floppy/0 -o ro -tvfat floppy <1>Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address 4489ed45 printing eip: c0115825 *pde = 00000000 Oops: 0000 CPU: 0 EIP: 0010:[<c0115825>] Not tainted EFLAGS: 00010202 <register dump, stack dump, call trace, code> + echo -n + [ 0 = 0 ] + sleep 5 ------------------------------------------------------------- How can I get to a shell so that I can check /dev/scsi? -- Shah <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
