if you type f8 and keep himem.sys form loading then you get up clearly! :-)
And what suirprise:
Wenn you reboot (ctrl+alt+remove) after get up a dos boot disk you do
not
need to remove the himem.sys. (but still not working.)
CD -Support broken?
I can boot nearly every Boot-Cd i have tryed (Knoppix, Debian-Install,
Suse,
Windows98, Dos-BootCD, NowelDos-BootCD).
But after booting the Bootimage on CD they all faild to find the CD
Device
for loading/mounting.
