Yes I have gotten everything working well and am very happy with my system.
Other than that I am only using 4 megs of my available memory and would
like to cut some of the chaff out of my kernel.  

Therefore I have recompiled the kernel, using the -current sources and on my A3000 
that has nothing on it but 4 megs of Zips and 3 HDs (that only total 200M, ick)

Anyway it apparently works, everything comes up fine except that when I 'cp 
./netbsd /dev/reload'  I get the expected line telling the kernel size and then 
the syncing of disks, but then all I get is a blank screen.  I have tried this 
with a number of different configurations and when I have gotten everything to 
work I have received the same problem.

Please if anyone can help please do...I would not be able to track down this type
of error myself...
