Hello
I re-installed netbsd 3.0 on a DS10 that was previously running 2.0.2.
First of all, this time the GENERIC kernel works on my configuration. On 
2.0.2 it was ouputting aceride0:0:0: lost interrupt so fast that the 
machine was not usable. Now I got that message three times, and then the 
boot process goes on. Stills blocks the machine for 45 seconds though.
I am going to try with a kernel of mine with 0x0002 flag to disable DMA.

The very fisrt install I made failed, because I chosed FFS_V2 as the 
default root file system, and some goggling told me, the boot loader is 
not able to boot from FFS_V2 on all platforms. A PR seems already on his 
way for that.

By default I have now a beep on the vga console, that I did not have 
with 2.0.2. I tryed to disable it  with wsconsctl -w bell.volume=0, but 
that does not change anything. Am I doing thing the right way ?

Thanks

Manu

Here is the corresponding dmesg
