Hi Dave!

re: A NetBSD kernel for you

I have good news! i'm not loosing target files anymore! You're a 
lifesaver man! ever since i found out about netbsd (kernel 16, i think)
this Q700 couldn't cope with that IBM KZ-C harddrive. 

Could i trouble you for a copy of the kernel source code? i've never
done a compile so whatever you used (.cf, makefile, etc...) would be
verrrrry helpful! i noticed that dmesg now says "dump" instead of "swap"
for the virtual memory partition. which kernel did you modifiy? i've got
plans for running netbsd off of a jaz disk, so maybe the kernel will
need some tweaking again...
