Hi!

I'm trying to install potato on a PC164 machine, and it hangs during
boot. I made a bsd disklabel with 1st partition starting on cyl 2,
installed the base system from ftp, installed aboot, and when trying to
boot from disk it hangs. I boot from SRM.

It does come quite far with booting, past the ramdisk initialization, and
it hangs right after this line:
 
"loop: registered device at major 7"

Any ideas? The machine has been running netbsd before, so the hardware
should be ok.

/Andreas
