I'm sure I have a very basic problem here. I have the Yggdrasil Plug-and-Play Linux CDROM and boot floppy. I suspect some might say that's my problem! When I try to boot my 755CE from that boot floppy, I get the first two letters of the expected "LILO", and then it hangs. If I try to "runlinux" from the CDROM (Raven CD-Note PCMCIA-SCSI interface), I get a DOS message saying that I am trying to perform a "privileged" operation. The "runlinux" command just tries to load linux boot code above the DOS driver memory so that it can use them. Is there a change I should be making to my configuration to allow such a "privileged" operation? I am using the standard config.sys etc., except that I have installed the CDROM and an ethernet network card driver. Any ideas why the boot floppy hangs the machine? To make certain my bootfloppy was current, I remade it, but got the same result. An old UNIX geek who doesn't know the first thing about DOS and Windows... Eugene Fiume.
