Ah, so that's what it is. I used to dd a Jax disk with a "virgin" win95 install off to my hard drive, then dd it back on, so I could start with a fresh copy of win95. Used to work like a champ, but since I updated to -current on 1/10, it locks my whole system up when I dd it out. Thought I was going crazy.
