I have been looking at the NetBSD/RISCOS 4 boot problem and have
made some progress. I have located the page translation table in
RISCOS 4. It has moved to 0x8000000. Even allowing for that,
NetBSD still will not boot. It gets as far as the boot loader
transferring control to the kernel but then the machine locks up.
It is a case of trying to figure out the cause without any
diagnostic information. I do not have the source of the kernel I
am using so have no idea what is happening there. (I am using a
'voyager' kernel from March 1998). As I only have email Internet
access at the moment (Argonet's Voyager+RISCOS4 = :-(  ) I cannot
get hold of the source or anything. Still, I will plug on and see
if I can come to any conclusions. Any suggestions people might
have would be very gratefully received.
   
Dave
