Woo Hoo!!!! I found it from IBM's 900 service number! THe Hard Drive is an MCA based 160 Meg HD with the following info: 1575 Cylinders 4 Heads 72 Tracks 48 Sectors per track Okay now I need to know what to do with the info....It tried to enter at the boot prompt the following info: boot: ramdisk hd=1575,4,48 and I get no such image press [tab] to see list. What am I doing wrong?
