I saw the ramdisk load, but not the scsi module, which leads me to
believe that's the problem.  I'm reverted back to the pr0.9 (which boots
fine) now, and taking a look at the initrd linuxrc.

on a separate note, i noticed the create boot floppy at the end of
install did not work, reporting an error in both the pr0.10test1 and
test2.

Thanks,
Mitchell
