<DIV><FONT face=Terminal size=2>I can't seem to get my A&amp;T 486 to boot-up.
If I disable APM from the above kernels my computer resets and re-boots
automatically immediately following the kernel message "Ok booting the kernel"

<DIV><FONT face=Terminal size=2>With APM enabled in the kernel config the system
boots and gets to the kernel message. </FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Terminal size=2>How can I get around this. I've tried different
