The LCIII is technically not supported in netbsd1.2. an error in
documentation has left a few confused bodies. =). /however/ it does work
in the -current kernels. i would recommend going to ftp.netbsd.org and
getting the GENERICSBC-15 kernel. I have a machine very similar to yours,
and I've been running for just over a month with no problems on that
kernel.
Hope this helps,
