Hello all,

I spent a few days going through Nick's advice (thanks Nick! ;-), which
was helpful. To summarize:

1) When installing from a floppy, the disk drives are not recognized
2) I can install from the CD, do boot -c, then at UKC> do disable isp*
and exit. The installation then recognizes disk sd0a.
3) On rebooting from the install (done this several times), I get the
 Using Drive: 0 Partition: 3 error
To install BootEasy, I attempt to boot off the cdrom and redirect to
hard drive by using:

boot sd0a:/bsd

Which produces "booting: failed (22) will try /obsd"
I've also tried this with hd0a (even though I have a SCSI disk).

Doing fdisk /mbr from a DOS 6.22 disk produces "Missing Operating System".

Please save me from installing Linux: when booting up RedHat 7.2, (which
was pre-installed by Dell), I had 53 security patches to apply, plus
another 30 the following day.

I captured my dmesg on a floppy disk before rebooting this last time,
here it is:
