(1) Cosmetic: during extract the status bar extends past the
its bounding box (at 100% extracted).
(2) Serious: The mount point /dos was include in /etc/fstab for
my ms-dos partition, but the directory /dos was not created.
First boot from sd0 drops into single-user mode because of this
problem.
(3) FTP install of srelease sources aborts because of a problem
with srelease.ab. This is probably due to the constant state
of change with ALPHA and sysinstall.
(4) Selection of installing the binary distribution and source WITHOUT
games. The game sources were retrieved and extracted (no binaries
thankfully).
(5) disklabel.hlp is definitely needed.
(6) Kernel hangs during reboot from hardware because of the 3c509 and
conflicts with other devices. I got to the message "Changing root
to sd0" meesage then a hang. Fix by booting -c and disabling
everything at 0x300. This should be added to the hardware.hlp
file.
