Hi all,

I have Daystar's Turbo040.  I would be happy when NetBSD/mac68k works
with it.

I tested it within the following environment.

        Kernel: GENERIC #50
        others: 1.1 distribution

        Machine:        Macintosh IIci/8Mb
                        Macintosh 8.24 Display Card
                        Apple 2 page Monochrome Monitor

It stopped on the half of booting.  The log is

   [ preserving 90304 bytes of netbsd symbol table ]

It seems nomal till the message 'Changing root device to sd0a'.  Therefore
I think/hope,
with Daystar's Turbo040, NetBSD/mac68k will work.

Please give some hints or advices.
