Help!!!!... I'm having a serious problem... I'm trying to configure TCP/IP
	networking as well as nfs into a new kernel... Each time I do a
	'newconfig bnet' and then reboot it barfs. It gives me a 
	'panic: no root file system'. A 'esch -vfbs' at the startup
	prompt fixes the bootup problem but it replaces the new /unix
	file with the old one therefore removing my kernel changes...

	If I don't use the '-b' option to esch I get the following error:

esch: IOCTL() failed [Permission denied] in Bad Blocks mode.

	I'm not quite sure what the problem is but it is very important 
	that I get TCP/IP up and running!

	Any help would be great!

		Thanks
