I tried to boot the new 3.8 version on a (rather old) PC,
a HP pavilion 422.fr. I tried both to boot from cdrom38.fs
and floppy38.fs and the result is the same :
OpenBSD i386 BOOT 2.10

booting fd0a:/bsd: 3263620
Entry point at 0x100120
.... Lots of blue-background infos ....
.... CD-Rom, DVD-Rom, nvidia cards OK ...
.... Keyboard OK (a logitech wireless) after a while ...
fdc0 at ISA port 0x3f0/6 Irq 6 drq 2
fd0 at fdc0 drive 0: 1.44MB 80 cyl, 2 head, 18 sec
... And then nothing... I waited for some time but the PC is frozen,
and the only thing to do is to unplug it.
Note that the hardware works well : on the 80Go HD, I have an old Win89SE
(10Go) and FreeBSD 5.4 (10Go) and I can boot both (my intend was to
dedicate that PC to OpenBSD).
Sorry to not give the whole log of messages, but I cannot copy them
except by writing them fast on paper. I could get some specific part
if required though.
Any ideas? (Sorry if I did wrong something obvious :-)
