With 2.0.35 init reports id[1-6] respawning too fast, then stops.

I did, and I did need the --ignorearch
What I did was:
rpm -i --force --ignorearch --nodeps `find . -name '*.rpm'`
which in retrospect seems like a bad idea.
I first noticed something was wrong when I logged out on a VT and init
complained about mingetty respawning too fast, and IIRC /dev/tty1: invalid
operation appeared in the logs. So I thought, fine, I'll d/l the 2.2 source,
and see if that fixes it. I then discovered that the new insmod won't touch
my kernel modules so the system is broken either way. :(
I can boot 2.0 with parameter init=/bin/ash, so I'll have a go at compiling
a 2.2 kernel with suitable configuration.
