I have recently installed Thor's snapshot 1.1 Alpha on a P90, 16MB RAM, 
NE2000-clone ISA ethernet card.  We 'migrated' from a 1.0->July current
kernel.  

Kernel label:

NetBSD 1.1_ALPHA (INSTOTHER) #0: Fri Oct 27 22:07:27 PDT 1995
    tls@alligator.tjls.com:/usr/src/sys/arch/i386/compile/INSTOTHER

There have been a couple of disturbing messages from the kernel.  Namely:

wd0: wdcintr: read intr before drq: status 0 error 0

and

ed0: length does not match next packet pointer
ed0: len 00fc nlen 01fc start 4c first 54 curr 56 next 56 stop 80

This driver 'debug' message has come up a few times.  Is it hardware related?

Attached is the output of dmesg.

Cheers
Tim.
