I understand the problem -- sorry, and I really am going to endeavor
to fix some of the problems this weekend so that at least procfs, cd9660
and msdosfs work.  I have some fixes right now, but want to make sure that the
changes are in the spirit of Lite/2.

To check out a reasonable kernel tree, try

cvs co -D"9-Feb-97" sys

(syntax might not be precisely correct, but this is the idea.)

I haven't been able to work much after work lately, but this weekend
(except a few hours with my girlfriend) is reserved for FreeBSD.

Expect that the system will be a bit wierd for a couple of weeks, and
I am sure either I or someone else from -core will proclaim things being
almost back to normal.

After all of this merge stuff, we'll have a much better platform to
work from, including better support for "special" filesystems.
