[comp.os.minix] Problems with PC Minix 1.5

I posted this problem sometime back and I still couldn`t fix it.

I have a problem with spurious interrupts when I try to boot 
PC MINIX 1.5 in a Texas Instrument AT compatible.  I had no
trouble with it in a Zenith 386 or a Zenith 286.

When I put the 1.5 boot disk in drive A and turn on the machine,
it gives the normal minix menu, when I type "=", I get the 
message "spurious interrupt .... ignore or reboot"

The Texas Instrument is configured with a 1.2 drive A, a 10 Meg
Hard disk, a monochome monitor.

PC Minix 1.3 works fine with the TI machine, is there any modification
in 1.5 that is not backward compatible ?

Has anyone come across the same problem ?
