Description Yun-Ching Lee 1998-10-25 00:40:01 UTC 
/bin/init catches signal when probing for devices and encounters a 2048
byte/sector medium.

Fix: 

Remove 2048 byte/sector MO cartridge from drive.
How-To-Repeat: 
1.  Boot with boot.flp
2.  Make no modification to kernel config
3.  Load kernel
3.  When /bin/init probes for devices, it catches signal when probing the
    MO drive.  /bin/init is killed and system is forced to reboot.
