>Description:
	When trying to install netbsd 1.0 on a thinkpad 750, the system
	hangs during the install procedure a few seconds after the
	install script prints
	"Populating filesystems with bootstrapping binaries and config
	files"
	The floppy disk light is on when the machine gets wedged and
	it remains on.
>How-To-Repeat:
	(first, patch boot/disk.c to test for a 36 sector/track floppy
	and act as if it were 18 sectors/track...install that boot program
	on a netbsd kernel-copy disk, then try to install netbsd normally)
>Fix:
	unknown
