Hello all,
Sorry to take up bandwidth on this, but I did look through a month or two 
of old postings and couldn't solve my problem.

I am trying to get a -current running on a IIsi with 8(9) M RAM. I got a 
kernel from ftp.eskimo.com on 9/5 and when booting it crashes into the 
debugger right after:
   Pram time did not appear to be set correctly.
   Pram: (big hex number), macos_boottime (big hex number)

(I know the pram does not work on the IIsi. I think the crash is occuring
when the automatic filesystem checks start)

After the above pram message, it crashed with:
  Kernel Illegal Instruction trap
  trap type 2, code=0, v=0
  kernel: Illegal instruction
  pid=1, pc=0x19a, ps=0x2008, sfc=0x1, dfc=0x1

And then some a and d register listings.

Then I downloaded -current source on 9/6 or 9/7 and compiled it and got the
same results. I tried with both booter 1.6 and 1.8.

I can boot with a kernel I got back in May (which is what I have been using),
and have not changed any of the configuration of the system between booting
the May kernel and the -current one. The May one still works.

Any ideas?
