I've read the FAQ, yet still no luck. My problems occur when booting. I have installed : netbsd11 base11 etc11 comp11 & "built devices" I am on using a single "Root & Usr" partion (set up with apple HDsetup Utility) of 38 MB plus a 3 MB swap file (I know its small but it all seems to fit on). Yet when booting I get the prompt: enter pathname for shell or RETURN for sh: Upon hitting RETURN (or anything else!) I get the message: panic: Kernel jump to zero and the whole thing crashes, leaving me with a Mac I have to reboot. I understand there is a patch for the MacBSD1.1 kernel, but I cannot use this patch until I have installed the system. Does anyone have any ideas about how to solve this problem, or why even it is occuring ? Many thanks... Dan -- Daniel Meacham EMail cm5bcdcm@bs47c.staffs.ac.uk
