Try holding down a shift key while rebooting. This will frequently
cause a keyboard error with a message

Oh, well. It was a thought... There's a Sylpheed mailing list

Not possible. If you by older mean models 8xxx (386 and 486 systems) or
older, there is no BIOS config utility, you have to install their utility

The first PS/2 to have a internal BIOS config utility was the 95XL series.

If you got an original IBM 8088 processor there is AFAIK only
the possibility to change the setup by DIP-switcheson the
mainboard.

Well,
IBM reference disks can be found at the ftp site below. Look at

As other have mentioned they don't have a bios, they use sectors on the
disk instead and load the bios/rom at boot. I've read that some
mainframes use do

It's a 486sx with 16mb of RAM, the bus's a Microchannel (MCA) one and the

It sure will. What sort of PS/2 have you got? ESDI drives can be a bit
tricky, and the install kernel doesn't have support for the IBM MCA SCSI
I am attempting a Debian install on an IBM PS/2 Model 70, with the standard
1.3 (might be 1.3.1) rescue disk.
The kernel recognises the IBM ESDI disks, but I had to do
mknod /dev/eda b 36 0
mknod /dev/eda1 b 36 1
mknod /dev/eda2 b 36 2
Also dinstall does not recognise /dev/eda as a local drive
