Aehm, strange, but the last two times I had this problem (on two
different i386 machines -- after installing 1.6.1) I resolved it by
recompiling a new kernel -- GENERIC -current.

Newer -current kernels are available pre-compiled via releng.netbsd.org
in the directory /pub/NetBSD-daily/current/.

It's advisable to first saving the old kernel -- in case the new one
shouldn't work.
