After booting up the Tiny 386BSD distribution installation floppy,
I ran "install" command.
I chose for a 112 Mb partition, and I answered "y" to create a 386BSD
partition and to put a bootable image of the Tiny floppy on HD.

When I rebooted from HD, I received following message:

pc0<color> at 0x60 irq 1 on isa
com1 at 0x3f8 irq 4 on isa
com2 at 0x2f8 irq 3 on isa
wd0 <Maxtor 7213 AT> at 0x1f0 irq 14 on isa
fd0 drives 0: 1.44M, 1: 1.2M at 0x3f0 irq6 drq 2 on isa
npx0 at 0xf0 irq 13 on isa

-------
panic: cannot mount root
vm_fault: 
panic: trap

The operating system is saving a copy of RAM memory to device 1, offset 0,
(hit any key to abort) [mount left to save (MB)] device bad system running.

Any suggestion ?
