[comp.os.minix] PC 1.5.5 boot problems

jrstu@cbnewsd.ATT.COM (james.stuhlmacher) (03/22/90)

I have patched all of the 1.5.5 code without a problem.  All crcs match
either Andy's or Bruce's with Bruce's taking precedence (kernel stuff).
Everything compiles fine and boots to the menu screen.  When I press
"=" however the cursor does a carriage return and line feed and then
nothing.  Everything freezes up.  F1 does not work.  If the printer
is on line it will repeatedly do Print Screens over and over again.

Is anyone else having these problems?  I thought I read an article with
someone stating a similar problem, but I haven't see{ anyone else post
anything.  I have never had any problems with past versions of MINIX.
Is there anything new to look out for (like /dev/port in 1.5.0)?
Any help would be appreciated.
