Someone please tell me what I'm doing wrong here:
(and none of that "you're running A/UX" crap...)

Equipment profile:

System:	Mac IIcx 8meg RAM
Video:	SuperMac Spectrum Series II/19" GS Monitor
	RasterOps 364 / Apple 13" Color Monitor
Disk:	Apple Internal 80 with A/UX 1.1 on it
	SuperMac XP100
	MassMicro DataPak 45R
	Apple CD-ROM
Printer:Laserwriter IISC

For some less than obvious reason, the only kernel I can ever
get to run on my A/UX system is the original one that came on
the disk.  I have tried to build a kernel with and without net
support and slip and I get the following error from autoconfig:

  Warning cannot find driver(s) for device ID 332 Version 1.0

add another one (different ID) for the (recent) RasterOps 364 board.
So what is it [you do/I need] to get rid of the warning messages?

It builds the kernel, but when I try and reboot it up, it gets as far
as resetting the monitors and just goes off to east-hyperspace.  I can
run in circles and scream and shout but I'd much rather have a working
SLIP kernel. Any ideas? (I'd like to solve this mystery before I go 2.0)

This month's hint on how to keep your sanity:

Frustrated by event notification systems that *sometimes* work?
Try my system: (a better than 50% success rate)

When your email flag goes up, say "Come in."
When someone knocks at your door, check your voicemail.
When your voicemail light goes on, check your email.
