Hello,

I am having a difficult time getting NetBSD 1.2.1 to boot on my IIsi.
I have the following configuration:
IIsi, 17MB RAM, external 100MB hard drive partitioned into 70MB
root&user slice 0 and 30MB to swap space (partitioned with HDT 1.8),
FPU on PDS card (gives Nubus slot), and System 7.5.5. (I am in 32 bit
memory mode).

The following problem occurs whether extensions are enabled or disabled
on startup, and regardless of monitor bit depth (1 bit or 8 bit):
After the packages are installed (I have tried a full install and a
base install), I run the booter (either single user or multi-user)
successfully, and NetBSD boots up until the copyright notice, and
then just hangs there. Sometimes it gets beyond the copyright notice
(but not by much). The very first time it got farthest, showing info
about ADB and then stopping on a line about ASC. Since then, the best
I have been able to do is this screen:

When it hangs at this point (or slightly before), I let the computer
sit for up to a 1/2 hour before losing patience and restarting.

Is there something I'm missing?

Thanks in advance,
