Summary: need help installing NetBSD under wb 1.3
X-Newsreader: News Xpress 2.0 Beta #0
Keyword: Amiga

 I have an Amiga 2000 with an 030 and FPU running Workbench 1.3, and I'm 
trying to install NetBSD on it. I followed the instructions up to the point 
where you copy the file system over to the swap partition. Every time I try to 
load the utility to do this (xstreamtodev) it crashes. I tried installing an 
ixemu.library, but this didn't seem to help. What I need to know is: 

1. Can you run NetBSD under Workbench 1.3? 
2. Which version of ixemu.library do I need, and where can I get it?
3. Why does it always crash when I load xstreamtodev?

 Please reply by e-mail if possible. Thanks in advance...
