Subject: pcvt 2.0 problem
Lines: 18

I have been playing around with getting pcvt to work on my machine
without luck.  When I bootup it loads the kernel, but crashes soon
afterwards (I don't get any text on the screen, I can just hear the
drive, and then the cursor becomes a full block and the a: drive light
goes on).  I am using the default options in the pcvt-hdr.h file.  Here
is my machine configuration:

Mitsubishi 386dx/16 with 6 megs
120 meg Talon hard drive
Paradise (WD) PVGA1 chipset (256k of video memory)
Teknika multisync monitor
NEC 101 key keyboard

The kernel is the standard one with the ec0 driver hacked to work with
AUI and about half of the patches that come with the patch kit.
