Hello, everyone.

I have been using NetBSD for quite some time now (since the 1.0 release),
and have had no problems compiling various programs and systems to work
with it (at least problems beyond the norm for UNIX compiling..)

I have as of recent upgraded my system to 1.2B (or whatever current will
get me nowadays).  Using sup sources from Thursday, I attempted to build a
kernal to match all of this (my binaries are current, my kernal is still
using 1.2 distrib sources).  This kernal builds without errors, but it
fails to recognize my swap.  Needless to say, this becomes rather fatat
rather quickly whenever I attempt to compile or do anything serious inside
of X.  Here are the specs on my system and the output from a diff command
af my config file and GENERIC.  Any help on why this is happening, or any
futher information that would be of assistance would be greatly
appreciated.

System:  A Mac IIci, with 20M ram (4x4M in Bank A, 4x1M in Bank B)
Video:  Set to 1 bit, using Built-in-video
Ethernet: Asante.  Very standard. Identified as MacCon Ethernet
Harddrive:  1.2 G internal

Output from booting with new kernal:

and finally, differences between my config file (IVCF2C) and GENERIC

Given this, why isn't swap working ?  I have it listed in /etc/fstab,
and my 1.2 dist kernal (custom built from a distfile that almost exactly
mirrors this one) works fine.  I have also tried compiling a kernal
without the cache card (i.e. with DISABLE_EXT_CACHE defined).  It shows
exactly the same behavior.

Any help anyone can give me on this would be greatly appreciated, as I am
nearing wits end on trying things.  I also liked the idea of having a working
vmstat and reboot, so upgrading to a post-1.2 kernal would be greatly 
appreciated.

P.S.  The high number of bpf's is due to the fact that CAP is used rather
heavily on this machine.
