That's exactly what I got when I tried the last 3 -current's on my Alpha
(also Alphastation 200 4/100).   1.3.3 works fine.

What I found out yet is that the system type doesn't seem to be detected
correctly.
1.3.3 said s/th like:

          AlphaStation 200 4/100 (Mustang II), 100MHz  ,

where current says:

          AlphaStation 200 4/100, 100MHz

It don't know when this started to happen, the last 3 -currents were the
only
ones I tried....

One other question:
how does it work to dump the console/bootstap loader messages?
/var/log/messages entries start too late with the NetBSD copyright
messages...
