FYI:

I installed version 1.5.1_BETA2 to see if it solved some problems:

1) Was not able to get chaos/control to work.  Same problems as with
version 1.5.  ttyE0 does not configure.  ttyE0 does not configure.  This
was discussed in earlier correspondence.

2) Had a siezure when editing rc.conf with vi, using the tty00 serial
dev, requiring a hard boot.   Same problem as version 1.5.

3) The sysinst seemed to have a problem with the keypad arrows when
running off the floppy drive during installation, using zterm on ttya.
Failed to move up or down when trying to select options, but the proper
selections would be made, indicating that the installer was reading the
up and down arrows, but not echoing back properly.

Running 7500 with 604 processor and 128 MB memory.

Keep up the good work.
