OK, I've successfully installed and booted 1.1-ALPHA. Two problems with
the install:
1) The egrep for sd[0-9] still has a ":" in it which causes the disk
device not to be found. I posted a diff for install.sh earlier for this.
2) base.tar.gz does not include the password file/databases or group file.
This causes the "sh MAKEDEV all" to create everything as root.wheel.
Please include these databases in base.tar.gz.
Other than that, it seems to be working fine on a 1+/16MBram/424disk.
Good job!
