I tried booting disk1 on two 486s around here.
One said
/386/init: file does not exist
panic: boot process dies: unknown
(plus what I take to be a stack trace)
A directory listing under MS-DOS indicates \386\init does exist.
The other one said
exception/interrupt 6
FLAGS=10092 TRAP=6 ECODE=0 PC=80107d84
(plus a register dump)
I successfully booted the floppy image from the previous version on both
machines, so I'm sad to see the new version fail so soon. Should I try
verifying the disk image with a checksum? Or should I try a different
brand PC?
(I was still waiting for a local SparcStation 2 to become available so I
can put the previous version up there. Perhaps I should continue to wait.)
