I may add to this that I've also tried <F1> when booting from CD, the screen changes color and then the computer locks up. I've tried text based install and still lockup. I did get the installation started with 2.2.19, though ! When choosing text mode with hd.img, I got some status information: Checking 'hlt' instruction ... OK Checking for poped bug ... OK POSIX conformance testing by UNIFIX enabled ExtINT on CPU#0 ESRvalue before enabling vector: 000000002 and then I got the lockup again. Narfi.
