The memory size is not detected yet.  I hardcoded my memory size and
addresses into the kernel.  Because memory configuration is passed by
boot-loader (with other parameters) I decided first to make the kernel
working, and then make 'flexible' loader (which also relocates the kernel).

Temporarily. :)

You can compile it from souces by yourslef using package source three
(e.g. pkgsrc.tar.gz), download precompiled binaries from some NetBSD
mirror ftp sites (usually located in pub/NetBSD/packages/), or I can bring
the binaries from my home computer and make them available for FTP
(if I don't forget, I'll take them tomorrow). :)
