Hi,

2. Also, when I boot MOL, mol slowly grinds down to an incredibly
slow pace. Linux works fine, and the window can be minimised with no
problems. There are many complaints by MOL about the kernel being
incorrect and patches that are applied. I am using MacOS 8.6, the
stock YDL 1.2.1 LINUX kernel (2.2.17-???), and have not yet found a
kernel update to match the one that MOL wants (2.2.18-???).

I suspect that the reason floppies, and CD's don't boot, and
networking does not work is either causing, or due to the slow down.
I booted up MOL with a CD loaded in the tray, the other day, and upon
opening a program (a child's game), it took 15 minutes just to get
through the splash page at the beginning of the program.

Does anyone else have the symptoms and/or a solution?

Thanks in advance!
Blair.
