Ok, I am using a Quadra 700, 68040 25MHz, 20MB ram, 1.0 GB HD. I
formatted the HD perfectly with HDT for AU/X 2.0. I had installed and
ran NetBSD 1.2.1 on this machine earlier this year with complete
success. Anyways... I ran Mkfs 1.45 using the default format settings it
gave me and then received this output...

It gets to the end and said there were no errors. I then installed
NetBSD 1.2.1 base, etc, kernel, man, misc, text and comp packages. As
soon as it was done I installed the GENERIC-45 kernel. So at this point,
everthing was installed, the devices were built etc. I then proceded to
run Booter 1.11.0 and got into NetBSD. It ran through the startup
procedures, checked the hard drive, which I noticed was not clean, and
right away had a 0.2 % contingencey (fragmented?). Then proceeded to
tell me...

/etc/rc.conf was not setup: Not booting into multi-user mode.
(or something along those lines)

It asked me to choose a shell and then logged me in as root in a single
user system.
I have no idea what happened, and I edited /etc/rc.conf to fit my needs
but it STILL said it wasn't setup. Any ideas as to what is going on
here? I have some odd feeling that my hard drive is somehow screwed up,
but nots not very old at all, maybe about a half a year old at most. 

I installed NetBSD on this same machine and hard drive at the beginning
of this year with great ease and now all of a sudden it decides not to
work. Heh. Any and all help is greatly appreciated
