Thanks Kevanf1,

I forgot to mention that SuSE 7.3 AND 9.0 are installed on that machine
and are running well on it (or should I say walking? I never intended
it to be a GUI workstation!).

I don't think 9.2 contains something that basically forbids it to run on
that box.

The only thing I have found is that it (9.2) takes appreciably longer
to load at boot than 9.1 But, I do have a full system together with a
load of stuff that I could really safely trim back :-) But it really
shoudl load on a 166 chip with that much RAM....I would have thought.

Yes, when I tried it first, I think I gave enough time to get up, but I'll give it another try (tonight) will report then.

But shouldn't it response to <Ctrl-Alt-F1/F2/F3 ...> or even <Enter>? And it doesn't!
