Hello,

Back again with the same problem, but more info

The problem was that after loading the new binaries and the vmunix.generic
to my BSD partitions I was unable to boot up the system again.

It dieds with :
>>> NetBSD 0.9a (GENERIC) #0 : Sat Mar 26 ......
>>> sjr@.........
>>> Amiga 2000 68030 (CPU+MMU) 25 Mc 68882 FPU
>>> real mem= 6291456
>>> avail mem= 3555328
>>> using 51 buffers containing 417792 bytes of memory
>>> 0 Amiga memory segments
>>> Realtime clock A2000
>>> rtclock [1/9]
>>> par0 [1/6]
>>> grf0: 640 x 400 4 color custom ......
>>> grf0 [1/7]
>>> ser0 [1/3]
>>> no suitable root

I am using a A2000 with a GVP GForce 030/40 (No EC) and
Quantum HD id:0 with three partitions BSDR, BSDS and BSDD
Quantum HD id:2 with also three partitions

The rdb info looks like :

Perhaps gives this a better way to solve my problem,
