   That is the only step necessary - I just compiled the new kernel
   about 1/2 an hour ago.  Just remember to increase the number of
   pty's in your system config file.

You also need to define 'option UCONSOLE' in your kernel configuration
file as well.  This option allows the console error messages to be
redirected to the console xterm (xterm -C).  This applies to both
patchkit-0.1 and patchkit-0.2.  Rich
