After removing my 8UP board I was hoping to have no more trouble I was 
sadly mistaken. I tried compiling my own 1.4.1 kernel but midway through 
got a kernel panic, db did say soemthing about an MMU fault. Just before 
the kernel panic the screen had a segmentation fault message. Now when I 
boot up netbsd when it tired to run fsck on the partitions I just goes 
right into db. (kernel panic) I'm really stating to fear hardware 
failure. I've tried booting with the -n0 option hoping to use one block 
of memory but the dmesg still says there are 2 segments of memory.. is 
-n0 not the loadbsd option to disable discontiguous memory? Anyone else 
have this prooblem!? :( 

Hope to get more info.
