You need to download the sys source tarfile before you can compile
	a kernel. If you have plenty of space on your disk you might want
	to pull down all the source, then you can get at the source for
	anything on the system.

	One other point, you might want to look at NetBSD1.2 instead of
	1.1, there have been many very good changes in the past year :)
