1 David, Steven is right! I wasn't thinking about the fact that you are really
still booting from the installation CD. You cannot use altf2on.$$$ in that setup.

2. I glean the following help from the FAQ.TXT file on CD#2:

Q: I booted from the eCS CD, after the "Boot Options Menu", I am
seeing the eCS logo, and my system just sits there with
no further action.

A: Boot again. When you see the MemDisk boot screen, select "Boot from
eComStation CD-ROM", and then on the next screen, select "Boot with
menu for own values" and wait for the "eComStation BOOT OPTIONS"
screen to appear. From there hit the key combination Alt-F2,
follow by "Enter".

The boot process will now display information about each of the
steps and you will know if a particular driver is hanging your
system.

Can you try the above? It may help!
