I recently spent several months trying to install Interactive unix V2.2.1 on my 486 PC The problem was the paradise vga card needs to be plugged into an 8 bit socket. This is apparently in the release notes but I cannot find it anywhere. Once I moved the video card to the 8 bit slot Interactive installed just fine. Best of luck, Rob Corran. rco@atom.lhrl.oz.au rco%atom.oz@munnari.oz.au
