Ok, I've tried two times now, the 2nd time I've erased the disk to install
with openbsd, but it changed nothing at all.

I can boot netbsd but at some time the loading of the kernel slows down,
one time more, 2nd time fewer..

I see the menus, chosed english, yes and then the disk sd1 and get that
(repeatedly)


 On which disk do you want to install NetBSD?

d, file system is full
[1]   Illegal instruction     sysinst

The sd0 is a Fujitsu M2954S-512, that one with the +5V on the case (!),
I'll try a smaller disk next, have n IBM0663 (?) here and a quantum, have
to look if they work at all....
