dist.fs won't boot. if i put my working 0.0 kernel on the dist.fs 
disk, in place of the 0.1 386bsd on dist.fs, 
it still won't boot. In either case, crashes all the way back to the 
power-on memory test. 

the 0.0 dist.fs boots just fine. 

anybody seen this one?

also, how do you tell install that yes, you want to wipe out the installed 
3896BSD? it seems it won't take yes for an answer.

thanks,
ron
