	Please note that sparc64 and sparc are two different variants of 
NetBSD, and the way they handle certain types of devices may be 
entirely different.

	Is this an SBus QFE card that you're using, and is it the same 
card that you've moved from one machine to the other?

	Hmm.  Weird.  I've got a Twinhead Twinstation 5G (SPARCstation 
4/5 clone) with an SBus QFE installed, and mine seems to get past 
this point just fine:

	My problem is that there is no support in the OS (well, at least 
in NetBSD/sparc, I don't know about NetBSD/sparc64) for QFE cards, 
outside of NetBSD 1.5-CURRENT, and I'm having troubles upgrading my 
system from 1.5.2-REL to 1.5-CURRENT.

	What version of NetBSD do you have installed on these machines?

	I would say "not yet".  I don't know too much about your setup, 
but based on the above, I'd be willing to say that you might have a 
bad card.  Have you tried swapping in a different card?
