Hi.

	After setting up and installing NetBSD, I get the following error
message when I try to boot for the first time:

	Bootsrapping the pmap system.
	Failure in BSD boot.   nest pa=0x106000, high [0]=0x100000.
	panic: You're hosed!

	stopped at		_Debugger+0x6:		unlk		a6
	db > unexpected trap; vector offset 0x77 from 0xbef00000.

	I would really appreciate it, and I will bestow lavish and excessive
praise on the man who can explain or offer a solution to this problem,
or both.

	I am using the following system:

	Mac IIci
	System 7.5
	17 MB RAM
	Standard 24 bit hi-res graphics card
	built-in SCSI on motherboard
	internal 160 MB SCSI drive at ID:0
	external 1.1 Gig SCSI drive at ID:5

	I am trying to install NetBSD on the external drive, which has three
A/UX partitions.

	Again, thanks in advance for the help, and if you wish, you can send
me e-mail at maxb@ocf@berkeley.edu.

Bye.
