I have this problem - every once in a while, when I boot frop floppy w/ my 
A500 with 3 megs of RAM, (2 on a GVP card installed in my GVP hard drive - 
a Quantum 40Q) - I get to the blue copyright screen, but then, the disk spins
and I eventually get a guru after a very long wait of at least a minute.
The guru's I've gotten include:

#0000002F.00C05058
#0000000B.00C05058
#0000002F.00C05058

This is very aggravating, and I'd really appreciate the help.  I've posted
this before, but our news feed was down, so...
Can anyone out there help me?  I disconnected the modem, and the system
booted.  Then about a few days later, that didn't work anymore, so I removed
my df1:, and that worked for only a while.  Heeeeeeellllllppppp!!!
