The other day I completely wiped my working NetBSD1.1 and installed 1.2. I
didn't change the hardware setup in any way. At first I installed all the
1.2 tar files, except for a kernel. Then, using the 1.1 kernel, I build a
1.2 kernel, but for some odd reason I can no longer boot.

I ftp'ed a few GENERIC kernels, but there was no change.

I have even tried to put the GENERICSBC-16 kernel (as well as others) on a
MacOS partition, but this is as far as it gets, no matter wether I place
the kernel on MacOS or the unix partition:

NetBSD/mac68k console
[ preserving 292148 bytes of netbsd symbol table ]
Bootstrapping NetBSD/mac68k.
Getting mapping from MMU.
System RAM: 12582912 bytes in 3072 pages.
     Low = 0x0, high = 0xc00000
  no internal video at address 0 -- videoaddr is 0xfcc00020.
Done.
Bootstrapping the pmap system.
Pmap bootstrapped.
Moving ROMBase from 0x40800000 to 0x9f0000.
Video address 0xfcc00020 -> 0xbf0020.

Then it just freezes. I can still break into the debugger (via a serial
console), but the only usefull thing I could find there was:
db> trace
_Debugger(?)
_nmihand(0,0,20,6,0) + 8
db> s
Stopped at      _nmihand+0x2c:  clrl    _nmihanddeep.146        [addr:0xcd9ec ]

db> trace
_lev7intr(?)
_tsleep(e51f8,2,1c5ab,0) + 1c
db> c


Does anyone have an idea as to what is going on?

I have also tried playing with the various settings of the booter (1.9.5)

This is on a IIvx.
