I swapped physical positions of swap and nbr and changed their sizes. This
eliminated the:

Warning: inode blocks /cyl group (29) >= data blocks (28) in last
    cylinder group. This implies 448 sector(s) cannot be allocated.

but I still get:

sbicnextstate:xfec count 0 asr80 csr18
sbicnextstate: aborting csr 18 asr 80
absc0: csr == 0x18
absc0: abortnext, csr = 0x18 asr = 0x00
absc0: sbicabort - sending ABORT command
absc0: sbicabort - sending DISC command

sbicwait TIMEO @ 814 with asr=x0 csr x18
   .
   .
   .

I've tried different inst-11.fs and kernel files to no avail. -I ff doesn't
help either.

Any idea what's going on?

Thanks

Brian
