In order to provide a total of eight contiguous virtual consoles
under Portable Predict Plus, BusyBox was modified slightly to
direct BusyBox's log to console 9.  In order to do this, the
line in init/init.c that originally read:

	static char *log = VC_5;

was changed to:

	static char *log = "/dev/tty9";


Also, mounting a floppy disk fails most of the time (but not always)
on the first attempt after Portable Predict Plus is booted.  Subsequent
mounts work fine.  This error is not encountered when initially mounting
a hard disk partition or a CDROM, and its cause at this time is unclear.
A cheap and dirty work-around to this problem was to modify BusyBox's
util-linux/mount.c to make a second attempt at mounting a filesystem
if the first attempt should fail.  Other than the kernel spewing
forth several errors during the first failed attempt, the hack seems
to work successfully.  A diff file reflecting the modifications made
to busybox-1.00-rc1 is included under this subdirectory.

BusyBox's .config file used in the creation of Portable Predict
Plus is available elsewhere in this directory.

Not all of the commands listed in BusyBox's documentation were
used in Portable Predict Plus.
