Okay, on the bug - I won't worry. Actually, Caldera 3.1 couldn't make a boot floppy anyway!Hmmm. Where is the MBR located on a RAID 5 partition? RAID 1 puts it in the first 512k of the disk, but RAID 5, I don't know. I'd try putting /boot on a separate partition that's not part of the RAID array. You may want to use LILO, as I've had GRUB fail on RAID arrays. LILO never has.
It appears that Linux never gets to boot. I go through the hardware check, then get the black screen. I never see a GRUB menu or anything else. Until I did this install I would get a "Can't find Operating system" message from the BIOS but this made sense because the disks were uninitialized with nothing installed. Now I get nothing so it appears that the system tries to do something but quits.

Question: Is it better to abide by the rules until they're changed or
help speed the change by breaking them?
