Hello Everyone,
I am trying to install NetBSD 1.5.1 from boot floppies (boot1.fs, boot2.fs),
First disk boot1.fs loads fine, after 2nd disk is inserted (boot2.fs),
kernel hangs when it's checking for
floppy drive:
.....
fdc0 at isa0 port 0x3f0-0x3f7 irq 6 drq 2
fd0 at fdc0 drive 0: 1.44MB, 80 cyl, 2 head, 18 sec
And system stops responding at all. (I have waited for an hour :)
Does anyone know what could cause this problem? Any ways around it? Any
actions need to be taken? Any suggestions? Please, help.
Please cc me or send replies to mertis@ameritech.net as I am not subscribed

Thank you,
Andrei.
