Details, please!  How exactly do the results ``not agree''?  It's hard
to even try thinking of which of the myriad of possible differences
between the two system configurations could cause this, without
knowing what is the difference in the results of running the program.

Also, please tell in detail how do you get to the ``command prompt
from boot'' configuration.  It could be that we mean two different
things when we talk about that.
