Hi,

It would probably be a good idea to read through the FAQ as most common
problems are answered there. The address is:

  http://www.macbsd.com/macbsd/macbsd-docs/faq/

In the mean time, things to check are:

1) Virtual memory is off and RAM Doubler is no where in sight.  However,
you need to have 32-bit addressing on in the Memory control panel.

2) In the installer, you did a "Build Devices".

3) In the Booter you have set the kernel name to "netbsd" and the Root
partition name correctly.  If you are not sure, use the command
"disklabel" in the Installer "mini shell".

4) Reboot into MacOS with extensions off. Then boot into NetBSD.

5) Make sure the video depth is set to 1-bit.
