Hi everyone!

First of all, I'd like to say that this is one great mailing list, I've seen
all sorts of information although most of it is regarding Qube 2's but it's
about the same as a RaQ 2 -- but I didn't see any answer regarding my Q :(

Let me explain my "problem":

I have a Cobalt RaQ2+ running Debian 3.0 that I would like to "upgrade" to
NetBSD 1.6.1 using the Restore CD from Dennis Chernoivanov -- 
ftp://ftp.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD/arch/cobalt/restore-cd/1.6.1/image.iso.gz.

I've burned the CD and booted my pc with it but it hangs at some point and
gives me an error (see below) during the actual boot

< start >
PCIIDE0:0:0: bus-master DMA error: missing interrupt. status=0x61
< end >

Anyone knows where that could be coming from? Sorry if that has been
answered before, I haven't found a way to search within the mailing list
messages :(

I'm using a Pentium 4 2.4B and a Gigabyte SINXP1394 motherboard (SiS 655
Chipset) with a 80gb ATA100 Western Digital if you need to know.

Thanks a bunch!
