Greetings,
I've been trying to install NetBSD on my IIVX with out much luck. I'm hoping
that someone out there was the answer to my problem...
Some specifics:
Machine: IIVX, 5 meg RAM. 1meg VRAM, CD rom, 80meg intrenal HD(HFS) 120 meg extrenal HD
(Unix).
Mac software: System 7.1, many extensions and control panels.
NetBSD software: version 1.0 (I also tried kernel netbsd.042995
Problem: With the version 1.0 kernel it hangs after 10 or 12 grey bars, with the
netbsd.042995 kernel it hangs after a message that says:
Setting MMU control (hold your breath)
If I try to boot netbsd.042995 with out the grey bars on it hangs earlier
(before any prints statements about the MMU).
Oh, I'm booting to a serial terminal, in single user mode.
thanks in advance
