it seems the prior diagnosis is correct.  the cpu kernels
cpu, cpuf don't have the kbin device built in.

however i'm a little confused.  do you start rio automaticly

since it's come up, what's the rationale for making the kbin device
'#Ι' (capitol iota)?  since 'Ι' looks just like 'I' with many fonts, i
find it easy to confuse them.
