this is either in the mac68k or the netbsd faq. (stop trying to log in as
root, log in as yourself).

yes, that's the necessary file. a 'man 5 ttys' will probably suffice.

possibly. i've noticed a lot of funny errors with netscape. you might
try a newer version of the binary if you can find it.

ummm....what toolchain are you trying to use? the one that ships with
netbsd should work just fine for netbsd. as to why netbsd's is a wee bit
different from the default gnu toolchain, this is so we can support things
like shared libs with a.out format, i believe.
have you tried following the directions in the kernel-compiling howto on
www.macbsd.com?
later.
