Notes and Observations:
Calderas automatic install of KED will not work. The user will have to switch (manually) to a virtual console (VC) to work with this distribution. Also, when starting X users are advised to use startx and not startkde
Calderas Lisa install looks for a standard floppy instead of the LS-120. There is no way to make Lisa installer read the LS-120 instead of a floppy at this point in the installation.
Video chip was not detected by the installation. The chip is a new chip, VGA16 can be used when setting up X. It is recommended that X not be used until an X-server driver is available. LS-120 floppy must be manually added to fstab.
