Ok, I've been told that this miniroot has a problem w/ the cfb. Apparently
it hits an infinite interupt loop. So, I removed the cfb and it booted, sorta.
I was able to choose my boot device (I typed rz4) then it printed a warning
about the clock (no big suprise there) and then printed:
init: copying out flags `-s' 3
init: copying out path `/sbin/init' 11

Then the machine just sits there, not doin anything. After about 5 mins
I rapidly hit the return key and the screen jumped a few lines, so it's
not a complete lockup. 

So, I think my install process is working ok, I'm just not so sure about
that miniroot  ;)

Anyone care to draw up a new miniroot?  ;)  Thanks again.
