        I found the problem, It was a hardware problem (the nasty analog
type). Sorry for the trouble . However now it does the following.

Freeing unused kernel memory: 40k init

It hangs here.

Do not pass go.
Do not collect $200.

It seems like it is not running init and/or loading inittab.

Whats up with this?????

Any and all help appreciated.
