	I am able to boot the Tiny disk, and I can install 386BSD onto
my disk as a full installation.  Yet if I try to install it on a 
100 Meg partition, with a 24 Meg partition being used for Dos 5.0, it
goes into the reboot cycle.  It claims the disk has no label.  I can't
set the disk label using the fixit disk, but I don't know if I am using
it correctly.  Could someone please help?
	My system:
		386SX with 8 Meg RAM
		124 Meg IDE drive (recognized as <TOSHIBA MK2124FC>
		Laptop with VGA monitor, made by Sega/Mider
		1 1.44Meg 3.5" Floppy

	Some one help, I am anxious to get 386BSD running.  :-)
Everything I have seen seems to look great (Congrats all around!)
