I am unable to get HURD to install. I used both the J1 CD and the tar
file to try to get it to start with the same result.
The kernel starts booting but every time it only gets to the floppy
drive detection message, after which it just stops, when I press a key
the kernel dies with a panic statement and reboots...
How long did you wait before pressing the key? On a slow machine, it
will take a few seconds until the next message gets displayed at that
point.
