problems with Slack.2.0.2 boot

[Ron Skopitz]

Howdy,

	I was wondering if there was something i've missed... I'm a Linux
"veteran" with many (too many ;) installs.  We have 2 486 machines using
NE2000 (compatible) e-net cards.

	Both of these machines run/have run Linux in their present
configurations.  I recently pulled the Slackware 2.0.2 net boot disk off of 
ftp.cc.gatech.edu.  Both of our machines freeze when loading the kernel
immediately after the line where the IP services get started (TCP, UDP etc.)

	Did i miss something?  As i said i've done this so many times in the
past that now i'm almost embarrassed to ask.  I believe it is locking at the
point where (on previous versions) it does something with PPP.

	If this sounds familiar *please* let me know!!


			thanks,
