Subject: [9fans] booting from cd on an intel 440GX dual processor
Topicbox-Message-UUID: 0ac8c74a-ead1-11e9-9d60-3106f5b1d025

i'm having some trouble booting on a intel 440GX motherboard
with 2 800mhz coppermine processors.

i've got an aic-7896n on the motherboard with no disks attached
and a mylex controler with two disks attached. there are no
ide disks, save the cdrom.

the machine loads 9load from cdrom and prints something like
this (copied down, so probablly not verbatim):

ELCR: 0E00

dev A0 port 1F0 config 85C0 capabilities 2F00 mwdma 0407
Boot devices: fd0

i tried the drive as a primary and secondary ide master;
same results.

i tried
	sdD0!cdboot!9pcflop.gz
and get
	unknown partition
i tried
	fd0!dos!9pcflop.gz
and it boots (recognizing one processor) up to the point where it
prints "kfs..." and then it stops.

any ideas?
