Hi, first of all a small correction, the machine has 2 CPUs with 248 MHz, not 450 MHz as falsely stated.
I was using an old Wyse terminal and that was the problem. After reaching the point where the modprobe errors occured the terminal is reset and this reset forced a reset of the machine. It was as though I had pressed the F5 (break) key on the terminal. How did I find out? Well I hooked up a laptop running minicom, to be able to capture and read all these messages rushing past on the screen. Imagine my surprise when I powered up and the boot proccess ran without any problem. Hopefully the rest of the installation will continue without surprises!
