Yes, the kernel seems to be surprised that my DMA is braindead. I
discovered this when I reinstalled slink and compared:

Today I built a floppy image, and after fighting with crummy floppy
disks for an hour, got a good one and booted it.
Network card config went fine, dns worked fine.
I told it to continue downloading the rest of the installer, told it
what mirror to use, and my 486 sat there for a good 5 minutes
