I'm trying to install NetBSD/Amiga on my A2500/A2630/A2091 machine.
Unfortunately, it never gets there!

I can start the install, but sometime during Extracting the distribution
sets it crashes.  It fault does not occur at a consistent place, nor is it a
consistent error.  I have had the following:

Illegal Instruction - core dumped
Segmentation Fault - core dumpted
MMU Panic
Memory Changed

I've tried doing the install on two different disks, just in case it was
disk related, but the same sort of errors occur.

Is there some way to test the MMU to make sure that it really is working
properly?


Thanks,
Phil.
