OK, here is more info:
     
     It boots up fine, (I got the swap set up, Is it Ok if the swap is on a 
     different physical drive than root?) but when I start doing pretty 
     much anything it crashes to the debugger.  This last time it gave me a 
     bus error trap message:
     
     trap: type 0x0, code 0x105, v 0xffffffff
     kernel: Bus error trap
     pid = 31, pc = 000C26F2, ps = 2208, sfc = 1, dfc = 1
     Registers:
     
     dreg:  stuff here
     areg: more stuff here

     Kernel stack (007C9DEC):
        Bunch of stuff here

As per the suggestion I typed a 't' at the debugger and got this:

_Debugger numbers . .
_panic  numbers . .
_trap  numbers . .
faultstkadj  numbers . .
_vm_fault  numbers . .
_trap  numbers . .
faultstkadj  numbers . .

        Please let me know if there is any more info that I can give you, or 
things that I could try.  Also, for some reason my /usr partition doesn't get 
mounted automatically.  It is in the fstab, but I always need to mount it after 
I boot.  I can't really associate the crash with anything I did, it happened 
when I have used the mount command, vi, cd, ls.  But since my usr doesn't mount 
properly the mount command is always a common factor.

        Thanks alot,
