I installed FreeBSD 1.1.5.1 on my IDE hard drive last night. I got the
three-disk system on the HD and up and running (i.e., I could boot off of
the hard drive). I grabbed bin_tgz.[a-c]*, put them in /usr/distrib,
typed "extract", type configure (gave hostname, no Ethernet interface,
configured /etc/resolv.conf anticipating future SLIP usage). Configure
told me to reboot. I did.
Now, after checking all the devices, I get a kernel panic, init dies,
dumps, and the system reboots.
How did I screw up?
