The "bogus do_no_page" error seems to happen on older 386 chips: they
sometimes give spurious page-faults. The linux approach is just to
print the warning message and return: it seems to work, and the 386 will
happily do the page translation correctly the next time around. You
should be able to safely uncomment the printk() that prints the message:
especially if linux doesn't seem to mind, and you have no other
problems.
I think this is due to an incorrect /etc/termcap: the correct fix is
naturally just to dump 'vi' and start using some emacs-like editor :-)
If that isn't possible, try getting a new termcap from a newer rootdisk,
and the problem should hopefully disappear.
