update: i took the good disk from the bad machine and put it in the
good machine with the bad disk.

ps: two things worth mentioning: i had optimistically set the vga
resolution to 1600x1200 which didn't work for this particular nvidia
card. it worked when i toned it down to 1280x1024.

the latest pcf config file has 'realmode' defined in the 'misc'
section. this prevents it from being started at boot time and aux/vga
complains that there's no /dev/realmode during its vesa initialization
routine. i moved it to the 'link' section. i see that the newer pc*
config files on sources have it at the right place, so i guess i was
just unfortunate to burn my cd in the brief period where the kernels
were borken.
