please let me know your results.

I've also made boot floppies (use 5-current code as of Nov/21/2001)

Moreover, sysinstall requires devfs on /mnt/dev only if trying to
mount filesystems. I've made a patch to do that (and more), and test
now (yes, *right now*).
If it seems fine for me, I'll post a patch. Current my patc

/etc/fstab should *not* exist since /etc is in mfsroot.flp. If there
is /etc/fstab which is match your disk configulation, that's magic :-)
