Hello,
Finally was able to download the archive. The boot disk was made for
Monitor: Generic Multisync 65Mhz at 640x480x8 (the lowest denominator).
The system boots but fails on vga. Also tried 75Mhz version.
Results:
1. CL-GD5440 based, not in vgadb, adding the line
(0xC0039="CL-GD5440 VGA BIOS VERSION 1.06") makes it hang after
dossrv: serving #s/dos
2. S3 Trio64 based not in vgadb, adding the line
(0xC0044="Phoenix S3 TRIO64 Enhanced BIOS. PCI Version 1.1) makes it hang
after dossrv: serrving #s/dos (worked nicely with older edition!!).
3. 9FX 330 based (not in vgadb)
4. 9FX 331 hangs after dossrv: serving #s/dos
5. Matrox Power Graphics (ML2P/4N) MGA chip based screen goes blank and
stays that way.
Any pointers?
