Hi,

It turns out, oddly enough, that the libm Makefile problem I wrote 
about yesterday is the problem with the sysinst kernel.  I'm amazed
at how much FP work printf and friends do.

I'm suprised, but I checked out a clean copy of current yesterday, 
put in my 2 line change to lib/libm/Makefile, built everything, and
then my PB540 booted with no problem netbsd-INSTALLSBC.gz.

If anyone else wants to give it a shot then the the files are at
ftp://ftp.ziaspace.com/pub/NetBSD/m68k/current.

The changed Makefile is there as well.

cheers

bruce
