Hi Folks,
    And the winner is....
            options         DFLSSIZ=4096

    Yes, its one of my additional entries. There is a chance the symptom
is a combination of this line and some other line. If anyone would
like more information, just ask.

    Does it seem incorrect for the machine to fail to find init and panic
with this entry? I didn't think 4096 was a large number when my tcsh
hard limit reports 32768.

    BTW, I now noticed I don't need the PCI_INTR_FIXUP or ACPI_SCANPCI
lines. A while back before Frank made some fixes to ACPI i needed both
of them or the machine wouldn't work. Good stuff Frank if your reading
this. Thanks for the work.

    Should I send-pr this one?

Take care,
    Murray
