Hi folks,
I've been trying to get NetBSD to boot without success for the last day or
so. My system hardware is a Mac IIsi with a Daystar 50Mhz PowerCache with
5Mb RAM, 80 Mb HD (40 root/usr, 12 swap) running Sy 7.5.1.
I have installed the base11, netbsd11, etc11 filesets. When trying to boot
(with booter 1.8) I go through all the environment settings and then come
to the boot/cancel dialog box. As soon as I click the Boot button, the
system drops into the debugger.
The debugger sez:
[preserving 89324 bytes in symbol table]
Bootstrapping from NetBSD/mac68k
Getting mapping from MMU.
System RAM: 4915200 bytes in 1200 pages
:

: <- lots of low and high numbers
:

:
Low = 0x48a0000, high = 0x48a8000
get_mapping(): Too many NuBus ranges.
Non-system RAM (nubus, etc.):
Log = 0xf90000000, Phys = 0xd000000, Len = 0x1000000 (1048576d)

:
no internal video at address 0 -- videoaddr is 0xfee08000.
Done.
Bootstrapping the pmap system.
Failure in BSD boot. nextpa=0x4106000, high[0]=0x4100000.
panic: You're hosed!
Stopped at _Debugger+0x6: unlk a6

Any ideas as to how I can this sucker to boot will be most appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
Frank.
