HI:

I tried installing the latest codrv package (keycap-0.1.1.tar.Z). I ran into
several problems with /sys/i386/i386/conf.c. I _REMOVED_ the pc0 interface
definition from my config file and installed the co0 interface as told by the
instructions. As a result, I got an unresolved error in /sys/i386/i386/conf.c
(pcmmap to be specific) when compiling the kernel. 

Well, I decided to ifdef the pccons stuff (i.e. if NPC > 0 ...) as is done with
other drivers in conf.c. I managed to get the kernel recompiled successfully.
However, In addition, I made the /dev/vga and /dev/kbd as instructed with the
correct major device numbers coresponding to conf.c. However, my kernel now
reboots continuously on a syscall panic.

I have the 386BSD 0.1 kernel with 1-58 patches applied + pcfs.

Any help would be appreciated.
Doug
