Hi,

I am having some problems with BSD 1.1.  

I got my system up and running with BSD.  I had everything working until I installed the SRCDIST files.  After I installed all 14 disks worth (1.44m) I get the following on boot up:

panic: init died
syncing disks... done

dumping to dev 1, offset 52160

dump 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0  succeeded

Then it reboots.  It is in a loop. I don't particulary know what to do.  I tried to copy a new kernel just incase that got corupted somehow.  I am inexperienced wiht UNIX systems, but am learning.  If any of you know what is wrong.  Please help me.  Thanks
