On reboot, ip/ipconfig (from termrc) reports a DHCP timeout, then nothing. Only way out (as far as I can tell) is contr-alt-del or powerswitch. (The NIC is a 3c905B-TX, connected to another system through a crossover cable (no hub). The other system isn't currently running. I don't really want to use DHCP anyway, maybe I should edit the ndb before activating the NIC ??) Problem 2 happens when I remove "*nomp=1" from plan9.ini. On reboot both CPU's are activated, but the system hangs, with error: mpintrenable: multiple enable irq 15, tbdf 5000000 intrenable: couldn't enable irq 15, tbdf 0xC007100 for sd1 (53c8xx) (My SCSI-controller is 53c1010, dual channel. Both channels share interrupt 15 in single CPU mode without ill effects.) Problem 3 happens after either of the previous ones: I revert to the original plan9.ini, but any subsequent reboot still hangs after the line: ndb/dns: can't read my ip address Also in these cases there is a long delay two lines earlier, between: "kfs...boot: nop..." and "time...". Maybe this is caused by some corruption of the 9fat partition, because the only way I have found to fix this is by booting from the install floppy and rerunning bootsetup, thus reinitializing the 9fat partition. I hope someone can help me. Geerten
