If you are doing Slackware 9.1, you should have 3 boot floppies; a boot disk and two "installation" disks. Can't say much more about the terminal you're using. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Kyrath" <kyrath@xxxxxxx> To: "Speakup" <speakup at braille.uwo.ca> Sent: Thursday, January 15, 2004 1:47 PM Subject: progress, sort of *long* Hi, I downloaded the slackware8 images and made the 2 floppies, and I have a null modem cable connecting my 2 pcs. After reading the info on the slackware.com site, I found that you are to type: ramdisk console=ttyS0 at the prompt, right after the boot floppy stops and press <enter> to force output to the serial port. Well... it actually worked! However, the target pc seems to have locked up at the point where it asks for the route disk.
