>Description:
NetBSD Alpha using -current kernel would stop at
panic: tga_console(11,0): unknown board config...
during boot stage.
System: Alpha PWS 500au with PowerStorm 4D20 (VGAEN jumber enabled).
>How-To-Repeat:
complile a GENERIC kernel and reboot with it.
>Fix:
temporary fix is commenting out 2 lines in GENERIC with references to 'tga'. long term fix would be to properly detect the PowerStorm 4D20 card.
