Well, it has been a good day. I have build the package (after creating a lot
of free space) and build my own arm26 kernel (named MOZART). As far as I can
see it seems to build a good kernel. I have booted my own kernel and
compared the output with your latest 4 MEG kernel. They both stop at the
same place (see a followup on this in the New FOURMEG kernel thread).

The cross compiler is running on a netbsd-arm32 1.5ALPHA system.

Now that I can build my own kernel I could try to solve some problems myself.

BTW Is there any official way to set the correct path for a cross-compiler.
Now I append the path /usr/pkg/cross/armv2-netbsd/bin in front of my standard
path before I do a kernel build. It works but I was just wondering if this
is the correct way.

Thanks,
Leo
