I have just installed 386bsd, patchkit-0.2.1 and XFree86-1.2 on my
386sx machine.  I am using codrv-0.1.1 for my console driver.

My problem is that when I try to shut the system down while X is
running, the system freezes instead of shutting down.  The same thing
happens whether I use reboot(8) or shutdown(8).  The system just stops
with the disk activity light on continuously.  Has anyone else seen
this?  Are there any fixes?
