I have an Axil 320, 512M RAM, single 2G SCSI, and a floppy. I'm
using `ttya' but otherwise a normal, headless, pizza box. I believe
I installed NetBSD 1.4.3 (via FTP) correctly (no noticable
complaints) but booting from the local SCSI drive causes the kernel
to panic on what appears to be the floppy controller:

--------------------------------------------------------------

Looking at the output from the boot floppy, however, things
appear to be okay:

-----------------------------------------------------------

I'd appreciate any hints or suggestions on this.  I can always
supply more information in the way of firmware or hardware model
numbers if necessary.

-thanks for any help,
