I have now tested the RPCINST one, and it does not work on my Risc PC.
It probes ok, and seems to be running ok, but when it comes to the point
where it says erase ^? werase ^W ..., it just hangs.

Aborting it with CTRL-C works, but the terminal is not set, the msgbuf
file is not present, the filesystem is readonly etc.

Setting the TERM to vt100 makes the sysinst program work, and I am able to
configure network etc. When I try to do an install it enumerates the
drives ok, and does not panic like previous kernel often did.

This may still relate to my problem with wdc0, as the drive light is on
initially when it hangs, and then it is switched off.

The previous kernel you made works fine.

If someone could tell how to drop into the kernel debugger I could try to
do a trace and see where it is when it hangs. How do I do that on a Risc
PC?

The dmesg file from the previous kernel is attached to this email so that
you can see which hardware etc. I have.

TIA!
