I own a Wicat 150WS computer and, not knowing too much about Unix at the
time, did something that grundged the kernal. Now, the machine will not
boot Unix (although I think all the rest of the files are intact).
Several calls to Wicat resulted in: "Oh...one of those. Well, someone
will call you." and no return call or help.
Can someone on the net help me?? I think that all I need is a boot disk
and instructions on how to boot from the floppy instead of the hard drive.
For the sake of identifying my configuration, this is what I get when I
turn the machine on:
Booting...
Valid ports are: 0 1 2 6
Memory test...
Good RAM detected: 512K
System clock is good.
Calendar clock is running.
Memory mapping registers are good.
System loader loaded.
WICAT UNIX Boot (Version 2)
Default UNIX: wdw0(128a)unix
If I hit return to boot, I get the following:
trap type 4, pc=2401A0, sr=2700
...over and over and over...scrollling down the screen.
Any help you can give is appreciated!
