What version of NetBSD are you using??  (And did you really enable soft
dependencies via tunefs??)

I tried again with a fresh SUP of current last night, and I still get
the kernel trap when I enable soft dependencies on /home using "tunefs
-A -n enable /home" and then subsequently do a write + delete on that
filesystem.

I'm building a GENERIC kernel with SOFTDEP enabled, to see if my custom
kernel is causing the problem.

Cheers,

Paul.
