 This may be related to Problem Report 58164.
 
 If the default NetBSD 10.0 netbsd-GENERICSBC that panics whenever a
 Nubus video card (such as the Toby Frame Buffer) is used or installed is
 instead booted using the built-in video on the Mac IIci, it doesn't
 panic, but the memory as reported by dmesg is wrong, seeming to ignore
 all of Bank A. It's not clear (from /proc/meminfo) whether the memory
 may actually be available. Also, the memory reported for [system]
 appears to be too high.
 
 For example, with 64 MiB installed in Bank A and 16 MiB installed in
 Bank B, and booting the default NetBSD 10.0 netbsd-GENERICSBC kernel
 using the built-in video:
 
 # dmesg
