	I've tried both... 2-bit, grays, no VM, 32bit addressing, no 
extensions... exact same result as before.

	I have one "AUX Root&Usr slice 0" and one "Swap" partition on the 
disk... I think its about 35Mb Root&Usr and 9Mb Swap.  


Any help would be appreciated... I know it can get farther than this, 
since I had it much farther along earlier in the summer...

If anyone has the source for the booter or the kernel around somehwere, 
will you look for the "Set _mac68k_vrsrc_rec to {0x0 0x0 0x0 0x0 0x0 0x0 
}." printf() and figure out what it does.
