Hi Benedict,
I met similar problems, using an IBM 9595. I spent weeks to get it work.
I received a lot of help from Zp (Zp Gu <zpg@ns.gold-link.com>). I hope he
don't mind I pass this address to you.
Anyway, the only way I got this machine to work was booting via DOS (OK,
shame on me), using LOADLIN with an MCA supporting kernel copied in the
DOS-partition.
I mean, the kernel I downloaded from the site of ZP, whitch is MCA prepared).
I'm still not quite where I want because when you are in linux, you work with
the (in my case) REDHAT-kernel in the linux-partitions. The kernel in the
DOS-directory is a DEBIAN-kernel.
I think I lack the knowledge to model the boot-kernel (whitch is in the
DOS-partition).
Hope this helps.
Success, Frank.
