Hi Mark and Colin,

I disagree a bit. My reason for running NetBSD on my Quadra is having a
Unix-like system available at home for programming and communication via
ssh. I like to run a fairly -current version. However, I'm not involved in
developing NetBSD (there's too little Fortran in it ;-) and the port-mac68k
generates sufficient traffic to keep me from subscribing other lists.

Therefore, I warmly welcome Colin's efforts to provide documentation (how
about putting it also on www.macbsd.com?) and otherwise accept that my
Unix experience needs to be sufficient to overcome any probelms.

It (that is the "official" 25 October snapshot, with Generic-46 kernel) also
runs fine (from the ZIP drive, at the moment) on my Quadra 650.

Best wishes,

          Nico
