I just put a new GENERIC kernel on ftp.netbsd.org in
~ftp/pub/NetBSD/arch/pmax/test/, in a.out ecoff and ELF format.
This kernel is GENERIC as of last night. I haven't tested it other
than verifying that it boots ('m still running an older kernel
to build a snapshot.)
But (courtesy of Michael Hitch) the kernel in test/ *does* have fixes
for two Personal DECstation (MAXINE) specific bugs:
* the "cursor movement restricted to 3/4s of screen" problem
* the "cannot type in a root when NFSbooting a GENERIC kernel"
problem
And also recent changes to -current, including the MI kernel
locking changes.
