Up until the 9load changes last year it was successfully booting, but I ran into an unresolved hang after that (approx. early November). I could boot from floppy and then run the KFS system, but my previous boot from the WinXP boot menu now failed. Never got it resolved since shortly afterwards I had to hand the T21 back to my employer in a blank and formatted state.
