[comp.unix.i386] ISC 2.2 - HP Vectra 386/25C - Prodesigner +

@asdnet.uucp (06/07/90)

I am attempting to install ISC Unix 2.2 on an HP Vectra 386/25C
with an Orchid ProDesigner Plus.  I am using an Adaptec 1542A
SCSI controller and an HP 330mb SCSI drive.

I first booted a dos diskette and ran a low level format on the
HP drive, no problem.

When attempting to run the installation program, after booting 
from the ISC 'boot' disk, it then prompts you to insert the 'install'
disk.  After inserting the 'install' disk and hitting RETURN, the
system hangs.

Does anyone know if this combination will work?  I have disabled
cacheing, extended bios functions, etc..  Nothing seems to change.

Please send your suggestions via email.  I will post a follow-up
if interest demands.

Thanks in advance

I was told that the entire HP Vectra series will not work with 2.2.
Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but if you do find a fix please drop me 
a note.
