I've made the three disks for the kernel and after I've successfully
gotten to the Milo prompt and told it to boot the fd0:vmlinux.gz
file the kernel panics right after it prints the memory size (note
I had to type the following by hand, checked it twice, hope its
accurate):
Probing PCI hardware.

A couple of things I noticed, this model is a 300MHZ machine
but the bogoMIPS number seems odd/low to me. Milo tells me I have
32Mb however I've got 4 SIMMS of 16Mb each so should be 64Mb?
I don't have a hard-drive connected to it yet as I thought I
would be using a SCSI Buslogic 946C however Milo complains
that it doesn't know how to configure the host adapter and
hangs if I try to load the linux kernel.
I've already reinstalled the SIMMS but that didn't have any effect,
What else should I try or is there anything else I should provide?
Thanks,
Bill V.
