Vmware and framebuffer flavors
When trying to boot compact or idepci set under vmware, the kernel says:
VFS: Insert root floppy to be loaded [...] and press ENTER
VFS: Disk change detected on device fd(2,0)
RAMDISK: Compressed image found on block 0
[now a 2 minute or so pause]
probable hardware bug: clock timer configuration lost - probably a VIA686a.
probable hardware bug: restoring chip configuration.
and halts. The vanilla ones work fine, though, as do all those
which are in dists/woody/.../disks-i386/latest
Does anybody happen to have a clue? Inittab could be broken,
but kernel should printk something before touching init,
shouldn't it?
