	I just got 386bsd dist.fs and fixit.fs files and installed them on
a blank 1.2 (each), and got an error with fixit.fs.  I will check it later
but for dist.fs, I got an done message (using rawrite.exe).  I backed up
my dos hd to hell and set my 200 (actually 191) mb HD to have 145 for BSD
and the rest for DOS.  C: drive is dos and D: drive is BSD.  I ran the
program (dist.fs) and got into 386bsd.  I then installed it to the empty
space.  After a long while, it would finished formating but yet have a 
problem transfering files.  I think the info said 146.7 mb formatting
high level something then after a while it would show 32, 3034 (?), etc.
showing one line at a time.  After that it said transfering BSD to HD (or
something to that effect).  After a while after that it would say I/O error
with all files from /dev directory, and a couple of other files from
different directories.  HELP!!!
