If you cannot get a shell to run fsck, my next suggestion is to
do a complete reinstall by running the MacOS mkfs and installer
applications. You might have a damage in the file system that
you cannot recover within your current partial NetBSD installation.
Find and use the newest versions of these tools, in particular if
you have a >1GB disk.

.. First I would like to thank Erik Bertelsen for poviding me with the
.. Kernel and /sbin/init.
..
.. The kernel and /sbin/init didn't worrk (odd I know), however after
.. having installed the init and the Generic-22 kernel, I now get past the
.. process (pid1) got signal 10, and get to the following:
..
.. Enter Pathname of shell or RETURN for sh:
..
.. I press RETURN and get the message below:
..
.. Feb 11 19:30:21 init: can't exec /bin/sh for single user: No child
.. processes.
.. Feb 11 19:30:21 init: can't exec /bin/sh for single user: No child
.. processes.
.. Feb 11 19:30:21 init: can't exec /bin/sh for /etc/rc: No child
.. processes.
..
.. I get basically the same thing if I try typing /bin/csh for my shell
.. (obviously with csh replacing sh)
..
.. I *think* that I should probably reinstall base12, etc12 and comp 12,
.. then try again. If anyone has any other ideas, please let me
.. know.....or maybe I should try one of the GenericSBC kernels???
..
.. On another interesting note: I re-cooonnected my Apple adjustable
.. Keyboard and Microspeed 3-button mouse, and they were booth recoognized
.. fine in the boot process.....<yeah! my id will be happy he gets HIS
.. keyboard and mouse back now :) >
..
.. Thank you all fo all the help so far,
