[comp.os.mach] Mach 2.5 on Zenith?

I'm trying to run Mach 2.5 on my Zenith 386.  It gets as far as asking for
the file system disk, but when I put it in and hit 'return', nothing
happens.  No disk access light, no apparent activity, and the machine is
hung.

I talked to a CMU guy who had a hand in the boot code and he guessed that
there might be some funny interaction with the Zenith VGA board.  I replaced
it with a monochrome board and got the same results.

I've only got three Mb of memory, and I know I need at least five, but I
think I should be getting farther than this.

Any ideas?  Is anyone running 2.5 on a Zenith?
