NetBSD 10.0 installation cd boot hangs



Hi,

I have some older hardware that I am currently trying to install NetBSD
on. In some cases I have not yet succeded; I'll describe one case here
and start another thread for a different computer.

The situation is that I have a Dell Optiplex 740 which happily ran NetBSD
for a long time, but the HDD failed, so I replaced it with an SSD, and
I'm trying to install NetBSD 10.0 (amd64) on it.

The installation hangs after a while; I'm copying the last bit of the
messages below:

This is where it hangs. Happy to hear any suggestions.
