	I am trying to install on my laptop computer.  It is a 386SX
with 8 Meg RAM, and a 126Meg Hard disk.  I am trying to install it to
co-exist with DOS (I gave DOS a 25 Meg Part)
	I can boot tiny386BSD and the fixit disk, but when I install the
software onto the hard disk and reboot, I go into the dreaded reboot
cyle.  It says, I think (hard to read with the screen clearing that
fast,  Disk label not found.  This is right after it trys to mount root,
I believe.  When installing, or booting of the floppies, they make my
hard disk out to be a TOSHIBA MK2124FC.  
	Oh, and my laptop is made by (don't laugh) Sega/Mider (yes Sega,
but it's a good machine)  I can't mount it from the floppy, as it says,
no label.  Please mail to me.  Thanks.
						Rich.
