>Description:
	Installation hangs after kernel messages. If boot-small is used, hangs
	after stty output.
	Console echos still work, but machine responds no further. ^C, ^Z and
	^D do nothing.
	Also, boot messages indicate that the kernel things the CPU is a 386DX,
	when it is an AMD 386SX. Installing a 387 copro makes no difference.
>How-To-Repeat:
	Boot from installation floppy on this machine.
>Fix:
	No known fix.
