Subject: Dell SVR4 on non-Dell hardware?

Does anyone have experience running Dell SVR4 on generic ISA bus 386
systems?  I'm particularly interested in:

	1.  motherboard/BIOS combinations
	2.  VGA (or higher res) video adapters

that do/don't work.

I have talked to Dell technical support and the standard line is "well, 
we've tested it on our hardware only...".  Not too helpful, but 
somewhat understandable given they'd like to sell me one of their
systems...

Email me directly; if there's enough interest I'll summarize.

thanks - neil
