Hi Tero,

Correct. But you need "loadbsd" to *RUN* NetBSD.
And that is what he wanted to now.

Yes, but it would be big waste of work to get it work with 1.3.
LoadBSD reads SysBase->AttnFlags to get knowledge about the CPU.
And OS versions < 2.0 don't recognize an 68040. So you what have
to write a new CPU detection ... bullshit to do so.

And I don't think there's any 1.3 user with a configuration usable
for NetBSD out there. 1.3 machines are A500/000s with 1MB.
