Description marius 2001-08-30 04:00:02 UTC 
	trying to select a terminal type beyond "cons25-m" in the options
	menu causes an immediate "panic: Going nowhere without my init!"

Fix: i guess the problem is type "xterm" in "RunningAsInit"-mode
	if so, this could be a possible fix (untested):
How-To-Repeat: 	boot from the install floppies, go to options menu and press space
	twice at the "Terminal"-option

This bug is now fixed in -CURRENT and in -STABLE.  Unfortunately I 
didn't see this bug report before the release of 4.4.  Thanks!
