Hi!
	Yesterday I installed

 526999 Aug 26 06:45 kc-aha-09p1.fs.gz
 447821 Aug 23  1993 inst1-09.fs.gz
 381761 Aug 23  1993 inst2-09.fs.gz

on our local PC (386-40 UMC, 8Meg, 170MB (1249/7/36 C/H/S) ESDI) and had a
very hard time because the disk label installed by inst1 wasn't recognized by
the kernel after reboot until I promised the drive/controller had bad sector
auto-remap (which it has not - ouch !). Does this sound familiar (well-known
bug or newly-introduced feature) or do I have to investigate further ?

Since the INSTALL_NOTES gave the impression you are really interested in
feedback I made notes on all the other minor bugs and unclearences as well;
presumed you want to read them shall I mail them all at once or file them
seperately so you can track them ?

Thanks in advance for your time

	Torsten
