Description lambert 2000-12-15 22:20:01 UTC
When attempting to boot from 4.x install floppies or a 4.x kernel on this
machine, it will do a hard reset after the following lines are displayed:

This happens with any 4.X install floppies.  I have gone back as far as
4.0-19990705-SNAP which is the oldest 4.0 Snapshot CD-ROM I have.

I would be willing to ship this system to anyone capable of fixing this 
problem.

How-To-Repeat: boot with 4.x install disks

Here is some information I forgot to include before.  I don't know that
it will be helpful but here it is.
