Is this using a Compaq RAID? My script to decide which drivers to load was buggy. Please try 4.4-test4 at <http://unattended.sourceforge.net/testing/> and let me know if it works any better. Failing that, please send me the output of this command: lspci -n | grep 'Class 01' > 2.

But we cannot distribute MS-DOS. You can copy the files to your own MS-DOS based disk, or you can try messing with the UMB providers in config.sys. (Using umbpci.sys instead of emm386.exe, or *neither*, might help.) I would rather work with you to fix our Linux boot disk. - Pat ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by OSTG.
