So try typing sdC0!cdboot!9pcflop.gz Russ Thanks Russ. I did that...and now I'm getting ... kfs...version..time init: starting /bin/rc echo: write error: bad process or channel control request command 20 data 808c6b28 limit 808c6d28 dlen 512 status 0 error 0 lba 0 -> 0, count 1 -> 1 (1) 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0xE0 0x58 ...that goes on for a while then it says dossrv: serving #s/dos mouseport is:...enter for ps/2 asks for for info and graphics and this time it seems to have worked since I have a white screen with some colored lines and then a black box on white screen looks like a kernel panic command C9 data 80b33278 limit 80b33478 dlen 512 status 0 error 0 .... bmicx 09 bmisx 04 prdt 8008a000 pa 0x00B33278 count 80000200 atagenioretry: disabling dma sdE0: retry dma 00000000 rwm 0010 command C4 and the whole things keeps repeating... then it prepares the menu but still has part of the black error screen on the white backgroun so you can't really see that much... then it lists sdC0 as my dvd-rw sdD1 as my Maxtor, the one I want to install on then sdE0 as my first Seagate drive after a whilte sdE1 as my other Seagate drive then asks me which one it wants to partition..always with part of this black screen at about half of the screen Any idea what is causing this?
