Hello again!

Sorry I can't quote Mark's message atm, it's not on my home machine (yet), so
from memory:

OK I have fixed most of the problems.
I had changed "options GENERIC" to "options CUMANA" on a dubious assumption,
but on second thought, it's really nonsense.
After reverting that, the "mountroot" reference is found.

I also faked a checkinodes() function.

All the other problems vanished because the changes showed up on my sup server
at Uni Mannheim.

So I have now a kernel that links fine.
After quite nerving problems to get the kernel on a floppy disk (I still have
awful problems to get anything on the floppy which can be read back without
errors), I was finally able to boot it.
But it panics while attaching the Cumana SCSI card:

csc0 at podulebus0 [ podule 0 ]: panic: sfasinitialize: Clock frequence too
high

What's wrong? Probably a newer csc.o is needed once again - hopefully for the
last time. In case it matters: I'm using v2.03 of the Cumana controller
software.
Could somebody please put it on the ftp site?

Cheers, Markus
