Hi
I just received my OS 4.0 CD with a used CSPPC and am attempting to just do a wee test on my 4000. When I say 'test' I mean that I don't have a hard drive in the 4000 yet (which may in itself be the problem) but I just wanted to see the first few screens of the install.
Anyway, the machine boots from the floppy, does some stuff then does a soft reboot (this is OK apparently). On the 2nd reboot the OS 4.0 CD is accessed and starts to do some reading. Files are read from the floppy also so I 'm thinking things are progressing as intended.
However, a short time later the CD light just starts to blink and the screen turns blue, then red, then blue before restarting. This cycle repeats endlessly.
Now, this 'may' be as I do not have a HDD connected but I somehow doubt it. My CD-ROM is configured as 'master' with the 4000 having nothing more in her than the CSPPC, floppy drive and CD-ROM.
Anyone have any idea what the screen color codes (I'm assuming that is what they are) mean? I would try it on my 1200 (first time OS 4.0 install here btw) but it's currently in parts all over the place
Many thanks
