In comp.os.minix I reported my problems with Minix 1.5 installation on a
HP-Vectra ES/12 AT.
Now, I solved the readall problem.
You should really double check what fdisk says about heads and
cylinders ! (Thanks Earl !!!)
But the problem was the error message ' Controler not ready in com_out'
Because Minix hangs up after few of these error lines.
You must boot with the universal boot disk.
No problem with readall !
After the installation I runs in protected mode. No problems, yet.
O.K. Thanks for help !!
Stefan.
