I am trying to get NetBSD up and running on my IIsi running MacOS 7.5.3. I
have a 20" monitor attached using an old 8-bit NuBus card from Relax
Technology. I am using the Booter 1.9.2 and have tried various snapshot
kernels as well as the original 1.1 release kernel. The boot fails
everytime with video adressing problems. The video address is being
detected as 0xf9900000 and the boot stops with the following messages.

Failure in BSD boot  nextpa=0x103000
                     high[0]=0x100000

Stopped at - Debugger +0x6: unlk a6

Yes, I do have 32-bit addressing turned on in the 7.5.3 memory control panel.

Can anybody help ?  The solution is probably obvious as this is my first
attempt at running NetBSD.  Suggestions and solutions gratefully received.
I am eager to explore NetBSD on my Mac but seem to be falling at the first
fence at the moment !!!
