[comp.sys.sun] Xkernel problems

mea@sparta.com (Mike Anderson) (03/24/91)

I am trying to get Seth Robertson's Xkernel (a minimal kernel for Sun 3/50
and 3/60 machines to run X-Windows like an X-terminal) running on my 4.1
Sun 3/260.  Everything seems to make O.K. and my 3/50 starts to boot.
However, just after the 

root on Xclient:/export/root...
swap on Xclient:/export/swap...
dump on Xclient:/export/swap...

("Xclient" is the Sun 3/260)

I get the message "panic: init died" and everything goes south :-(.  It
does generate a core file that says its from "Xsun".  I've looked through
all of the code and can't find Seth's e-mail address anywhere (veerrry
clever, Do you now or did you ever work for Sun? ;-).  I'm using the Xsun
and Xnit that was supplied with the tar file.  Does anyone have any clues
as to what's happening?

Help please and I'll pass it along,
