I have bb_riscbsd. I also have the INSTALL pages. Unfortunately the INSTALL
pages tell me to look at "arm32/platform/prep" but those directories don't
seem to exist anywhere. I certainly cannot find them anywhere, and previous
requests to the list have produced exactly no response at all.

So my question is: what do I have to do to enable this? I have one 500Mb
virtual disc (an IDEFS partion on a 1.2Gb disk) that I have reserved for ARM
Linux or NetBSD, whichever will be the first to work on this scheme.
bb_riscbsd seems to do exactly bugger all when I try to run it, and there
does not seem to be any help files for it anywhere.

Yes, got those too. Now all I need is for some help on setting the system up
so that I can attempt to start this off. Any offers anybody? Please?
