I was able to boot my Classic II with the generic#5 kernel several
times, even in multi-user mode.  My hard drive got corrupted during
repartitioning, though, and I had to rebuild NetBSD.  I think I had
everything set up as I did before, and the standard messages showed up on
my serial console regarding what kernel I was using, until the message
"ser0 at mainbus0" appeared, and the machine hung.

What does this message mean?  What should come after it?

What's a good reference that I might buy to help myself with this and
related problems?

Chris
