Robert,
I have placed the config files used to generate the snapshot
generic kernels on ftp.mrynet.com.
Look in /pub/NetBSD/arch/sgimips/mrynet
There you'll find:
% ls -l ~ftp/pub/NetBSD/arch/sgimips/mrynet
total 6
-rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 1838 Apr 29 22:51 GENERIC
-rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 1841 Apr 29 22:51 GENERIC_L2
GENERIC disables L2 cache for R5K and R4600's.
GENERIC_L2 enables the L2 cache for R4000's and R4400's.
The difference between the two files is the commenting-out
of:
options L2_CACHE_ACTUALLY_WORKS
You will need the patches mentioned in the snapshot notes
for the L2 cache disabling if you're running on an R5K or
R4600.
