[newbie] Boot problems

[John Aldrich]

As I mentioned in my previous message, I installed Mandrake on my dual-ppro
200mhz system (192 mb ram and about 9 gb drive space total.)

I had a problem after I'd installed with the system hard-locking after the
second or third boot on checking /dev/hda. There is no other file system on
the computer, just ext2 and swap. I have about 50 mb swap space on /dev/hda2
and about 75 mb swap on /dev/sdax (don't recall which partition...I *think*
I put it on /dev/sda2)

Anyone got any suggestions? I had no problems installing. The system is
mostly running off the scsi card (Advansys Ultra SCSI ABP940-UA) and
Mandrake was installed off the CDROM just fine. The first hint of trouble
came when it locked up.

Thanks...
