Hi there,

I'm attempting to install netbsd 2.0 on a sparc SS1+ with 16MB of RAM 
via the network (crossover cable actually), and it seems to me that I'm 
having problems loading the netbsd-GENERIC kernel. The error below is 
experienced with the netbsd-GENERIC kernel, but bear in mind this 
machine will load the netbsd-KRUPS and netbsd-MRCOFFEE kernels [but then 
complains about them not being sun4c kernels!!].

I can't seem to find a reference that will tell me what a "/Cannot load 
netbsd: error=27"/ means. Is it lack of RAM as I suspect? If so, if I 
max out this machine to 40MB (is that the max?) do you think that will 
be sufficient RAM?

This is the error I see:
