Thanks!
I forgot to say that the machine is already running 3.0 GENERIC. :)
I will try to boot the CD on the new machine before. Good idea.
Gilles.

I would update to the latest code (along netbsd-3 if you're there, to
netbsd-3 at least if you're running 1.6 or 2) before moving, to
increase the odds that all will be supported. Ensure that you have a
GENERIC rather than custom/stripped kernel. Before moving, boot an
