System: NetBSD arresum.inka.de 1.4B NetBSD 1.4B (ARRESUM) #348: Tue May 11 16:26:15 MEST 1999 bernd@arresum.inka.de:/home/work/obj_i386/src.i386/sys/arch/i386/compile/ARRESUM i386


>Description:
	A 1.4B sysinst just core dumps when you make your own boot floppy.
	The resulting core dump isn't a correct core dump which makes
	it impossible to debug where sysinst failed, at least gdb fails to
	recognize it as an core dump and the begining of the file doesn't
	contains the filename from where it core dump't.

	This doesn't happen when you start sysinst on the system
	where you just build it (in multiuser mode).
>How-To-Repeat:
	Make a boot floppy for i386 and try to boot from it.
>Fix:
	Unknown.
