I ran into a similar problem. From what i could tell,
it tries to
initialize the network cards at this point. I have an
NE2000 card that
is pnp so it only is activated when rebooting from
linux, and that is
when i got the problem.
So my question is are the drivers in serverboot.gz or
gnumach?
if serverboot.gz how do i replace it to have ne2000
drivers?
