After booting the dist.fs floppy and running install, the PC boots off 
hard disk but then is unable to mount / due to the above error.
I tried Terry's FAQ list, but failed to find the fix.  
The machine is a clone 486DX-50 (not DX2-50) with a 120Mb (112 effective) 
Connor disk and a WD clone ethernet card.  The disk is partitioned with
62Mb for DOS and 50Mb for 386BSD.

Any help would be greatly appeciated.  I am using Terry's dist.fs-noIS to
do the install.
