| title: | RE Sick of Jensen will pay for good in |

Actually, that is a damn good idea. Its a cop out, but then again,
Im putting out bribes to get this installed, so maybe its a way
out of this with my dignity left intact. :-)
I suppose with that approach I would just have to read up on SRM
for the proper way to boot off a hard drive partition.
Thanks for the best suggestion so far!

Michael,
This may be a naive approach, and even a bad thing to suggest to
customers, but... Have you tried plugging the Jensen hard drive into
another box, installing on that, and then plugging it back into the Jensen?
It may be the wrong answer, but it might be quicker than trying to get the
Jensen to behave. (Believe me, I feel your pain... I unsucessfully tried
to get a Jensen to work a few months ago...)

Hello,
My final plea for help...after almost 3 months of trying to install
Linux on a Jensen, Im at the end of my rope.
I will pay $50 cash to the first person to lead me to the first
RH6.0 installation screen. I need the capability of booting off
the harddrive. You can either arrange to stop by, mail me a
floppy image which will work, or talk me through on the phone.
This is probably a 10 minute job but Ive wasted hundreds of
hours of work on it already. The box is slow as molasses...its
the principle of the matter!!!
Ive always been able to install on Alpha boxes, but this one
resists all attempts. If interested in this job, please contact
me for arrangments.
Thanks,
Michael
