	EDT stands for Equipped Device Table.  I have only seen one EDT
error, which was when I botched a 3BNET installation.  When the driver was
reinstalled properly, the problem went away.
	I believe your error message is the failure of a boot program called
`filledt' to properly execute.  WHY filledt fails, I don't know.
