I don't know why the system crashed, but it's been consistent with go14.

I saw green console messages followed by system hang or reboot.

I find that lang/python38 and lang/python39 also crash/reboot.

On the other computer, with NetBSD 9.99.82, I tried, was able to get through go, but (on meta-pkgs/pkg_developer), python38 hung.

I got a green console message about entropy, but system did not crash.  Ctrl-C got out.

So I suspect something adverse happened on the way to NetBSD 9.99.82, see why it is not ready to branch (NetBSD 10_BETA and 10.99.1).

Also, on the computer with the more severe problem, where I have on-motherboard wireless AR9271 chipset, I have to disable athn, otherwise boot hangs just after

This has been a problem with NetBSD for quite some time.

I suspect the problem might be not with athn driver but with the underlying infrastructure.
