well, i finally gave up on the IIci -- it was a parts-shop-created machine,
and i think there must have been some un-guessable factor in its creation
that prevented me from using it as a Unix box.

i have gotten my 12 MB LCIII/Performa450 back from a friend who had
borrowed it, however, and NetBSD *will* boot on this one.  grudginly so, it
seems.  (sometimes i get an 'unimplemented trap' error -- at least i think
that's what it was).  but it will boot, nonetheless.

still a few problems, though.
now in the middle of the boot process, i get a dialogue asking for my
terminal type.  what do i put there?

also -- which directory is the 1.2beta in?
