Hi,

 

after waiting for the 2.0 release, I decided that is was time for me to
install NetBSD 2.0 AMD64 on my laptop (an Acer Aspire 1501Lmi, with a AMD 64
bits 3000+ processor). I downloaded the ISO, made boot discs, and started to
install... not!

 

This is all I got to see:

 

'NETBSD/i386 ustarfs Primary Bootstrap

 

NETBSD/AMD64 BIOS BOOT, Revision 3.1

(ascent@ascent.student.utwente.nl, Sat Dec 11 16:48:26 CET 2004)

 

Memory: 638/522176 k

 

Press return to boot now, any other key for bootmenu

 

booting fd0b:netbsd

3582240+2958024+373112=0x798780

_'

 

The '_' blinks a few times, the 'cell' becomes filled, and then the system
freezes.

 

Does anyone have a clue? Is there a certain solution? 

 

thanks in advance,

Yori
