I am attempting to install on a Gateway 2000 Pentium Pro 200. The motherboard 
seems to be an Intel product very similar - not quite identical to:
http://developer.intel.com/design/motherbd/vs/index.htm
The disk controller is built onto the motherboard and identifies itself as:
Intel 82371SB PCI Bus Master IDE Controller

The disk drive is a Maxtor Model 85120AP: 5.1 Gig, 9924 cylinder, 16 head, 63 
sector

This system boots and runs Win95 with no problem.

During the initial Linux boot all appears to progress well up to the Partition 
a Hard Disk step.

I then get "FATAL ERROR: Cannot seek on disk drive"

Any help would be appreciated.
