Edit your private copy of amiga_init.c. Change the line 

	RELOC(noncontig_enable, u_long) = (flags >> 1) & 3;
to
	RELOC(noncontig_enable, u_long) = 0;

then rebuild the kernel. You can install the kernel in a running 
system; remember to mv /netbsd /netbsd.old first, and best have 
somebody around whom you can direct, per phone, how to boot with 
netbsd.old if it fails.
