You should check if you can reconfigure your terminal to an other
terminal emulation. If this fails you should use a different terminal.

This is not the patched kernel, this is the original broken kernel. The
patched kernel will report "build@Zimbo, Mon Jan 24 09:45:11 CET 2005".
(Actually this is the boot loader, not the kernel.)

Most likely you have messed up the boot images or the disk ordering when
writing the disks. I recommend to remove all but the boot disk if you
have multiple disks in the target machine.

Also note that you have to write the generic_com0.fs image to the boot
disk, not sysinst_com0.fs. The later is for instaling only, the former
is the GENERIC kernel intended to run the system after instalation.
