I am having trouble installing the 3 dis[ck] demo set; This is a
Toshiba T2450CT laptop (75MHz i486DX4, 8MB, TFT VGA, 320MB IDE, and
AccuPoint).

The problem occurs on the first dis[ck] when B.COM is invoked on the
A: drive.  B.COM seems to find, load, and run 9DOS.  Here is what it
says:

1269 free pages, 5076K bytes, swap 32596K, highwater 252K, headroom 312K
CPU is a 74 MHz IntelDX4 (cpuid: ax 480 dx 3)
pcmcia controller0 is a 1 slot Cirrus Logic PD6710
fs...time...panic: ataintr: read/ident
exiting

Any ideas?


P.S.
(1) An older Toshiba (T4600) installation of the demo set was
    successful.
(2) For the troubled T2450CT,  I followed the instructions in the
    ``Read this section if you have trouble installing on the PC''
    section, and got the same result.
