Hi,

It's certainly good to see NetBSD/mac68k users in Japan (I'm a
Japanese studying in US :-)

This contradicts with my experience.  I'm using US System 7.1 and
never bothered to upgrade my MODE32 to 7.5.  Yet I've never
experienced any weird boot problems except for the "too many nubus"
panic when I forgot to turn on MODE32 ;-)  Perhaps, it's a KanjiTalk
specific problem?
