4.8 install on Gateway 920

[Don Barkley]

i am having a problem installing 4.8 on a new Gateway 920.
the system boots and asks for mfsroot.flp.

almost immediately after, i get the following:

Fatal trap 10: trace trap while in vm86 mode
... instruction, stack and frame pointers follow ...
trap number = 10
panic: trace trap
Uptime: 1s

anyone seen this before? any suggestions? thanks.
