I own a Wicat 150WS computer and, not knowing too much about Unix at the time, did something that grundged the kernal. Now, the machine will not boot Unix (although I think all the rest of the files are intact). Several calls to Wicat resulted in: "Oh...one of those. Well, someone will call you." and no return call or help. Can someone on the net help me?? I think that all I need is a boot disk and instructions on how to boot from the floppy instead of the hard drive. For the sake of identifying my configuration, this is what I get when I turn the machine on: Booting... Valid ports are: 0 1 2 6 Memory test... Good RAM detected: 512K System clock is good. Calendar clock is running. Memory mapping registers are good. System loader loaded. WICAT UNIX Boot (Version 2) Default UNIX: wdw0(128a)unix If I hit return to boot, I get the following: trap type 4, pc=2401A0, sr=2700 ...over and over and over...scrollling down the screen. Any help you can give is appreciated! Mark Oberg ...!uunet!hadron!lsw!grout!mark or: Fidonet 1:109/506 -- Mark_Oberg at f506!n109!z1!fidonet.org (I think)
