Description sjr 1999-09-01 03:50:01 UTC

	After choosing the fixit option, you are prompted to install
	the 2nd CDROM for the fixit filesystem. If you do, you get an
	error that it is for the Alpha.

How-To-Repeat: 
	Select the CDROM fixit option after booting from a CDROM
	and install the 2nd CDROM as prompted.

Sorry, first patch was slightly incomplete... Try this one.

Jordan might be interested in this one for 3.3-RELEASE.

This doesn't require a patch, it simply requires a different cdrom.inf 
file for CD #2, this being an error I made on that specific release. 
It won't reoccur on subsequent releases.
