dsik with new kernel hung at rc.don (sort-of)

[David_Oswald@prenhall.com]

     Hi all...
     
         Created a new kernel for my litlle compaq tecra laptop. (386sx, 
     6mb ram, 120mb +- HDD, mono vga)
     
        After doing a make bzImage, I copied the image to the floppy as 
     "linux" and boot the contura with the new disk to perform a new 
     install on this box. oh yeah - I ran the *sh file that the text file 
     on the boot disk recommends - I cant remember the name at this time.
     
        The bootup goes well - no problems until the rc.done message 
     appears. The machine just stops at this point.
     
        HOWEVER - After fooling around I found out that ALT+F2 worked. And 
     I was able to install the system by running the dinstall executable.
     
        Any ideas on what I did wrong.
     
     Thanks in advance...Dave
