I am having some problems with my installation of 386BSD.
First, I installed the binary distribution, but when it got to the end it
hung. This occurred after the "Final installation" message. It did not
ask me for a system name. So I rebooted the machine and the system
banner came up and the info with all my equipment then this:
Automatic reboot in progress...
/dev/rwd0a: 2129 files, 26395 used, 295476 free (284 frags, 36899 blocks, 0.1% f

Is my file system corrupt? If so, can I fix it without reinstalling? (I
lost all the bin01 files, they were in /tmp). Also, what is the
device 0/1 not found?
Also had a problem with tip:
tip com2
/dev/com2: permission denied
link down
Thanks for any help with these problems.
