Hi guys, sorry about the delay in my response..

I'm pretty sure it's a stock Jensen, apart from the memory (and maybe
extra disks):

DEC 2000 model 300 (Jensen)
80MB RAM
Adaptec AHA1742 SCSI controller
Compaq Qvision 1280 video card
DEC RZ25 (1GB HD)
DEC RZ26 (400MB HD)
DEC RRD44 (CDROM drive)

I dunno what the network card is, but the kernel on the JumpStart CD
doesn't detect it. I didn't see any obvious distinguishing logos on it.

This is a mystery to me, I'm sorry to say. If you could provide me with
some more details about your machine I could try to configure our Jensen
similarly and reproduce the error.

I'll try to do some more testing with the Jensen and get it up and
running..
