Whenever trying to boot from my IIsi I get the following message:
[ preserving 89324 bytes of netbsd symbol table ]
System RAM: 4194304 bytes in 1024 pages.
Low = 0x4000000, high = 0x43f8000
Low = 0x8000, high = 0x10000
Non-system RAM (nubus, etc.):
Log = 0xf9000000, Phys = 0xf90000000, Len = 0x5e00000 (98566144d)
Log = 0xfee00000, Phys = 0x0, Len = 0xfff00000 (4293918720d)
Log = 0xfef00000, Phys = 0xfef00000, Len = 0x1000000 (1048576d)
no internal video at address 0 -- videoaddr is 0xfee08000.
Then it freezes.
I am using a IIsi, 5MB of RAM, System 7.5.3 Revision 2.
I have followed the IIsi specific directions, which include setting my
amount of RAM to 4MB. Debugging is off.
I am booting Single User, no serial boot echos or console. No env dumps.
I am booting off of a EZ drive (but I am pretty sure this would not be a
problem, since I can install packages, etc. onto it).
The only packages I currently have installed are etc11 and netbsd11.
I am trying to get base11, but will this solve my problem? (BTW, all the
listed NetBSD mirrors seem very slow...is it just me?)
And, of course, I am in mono w/ no extensions...
Any help would be appreciated...
