I did as suggested, tried to boot (same procedure I mentioned in
the reply to Valery in this thread) with this kernel:

http://nycdn.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD-daily/netbsd-9/202009120220Z/amd64/binary/kernel/netbsd-GENERIC.gz

This should be from September, 12. However, if I try `uname -a':

NetBSD hostname 9.0_STABLE NetBSD 9.0_STABLE (GENERIC) #0: Fri Sep  4 18:54:33 UTC 2020  mkrepro%mkrepro.NetBSD.org@localhost:/usr/src/sys/arch/amd64/compile/GENERIC amd64

The NIC has the same issue with this kernel:
