I have 2.1_RC6_softfloat installed and purring like a kitten on my LCIII.
I'm curious about your Q950 install, however.  I spent most of last night
searching the web for information on Q950 installs, and couldn't find much
good news.

I found that people have had success running Linux on the 950, but I've
heard nothing but horror stories from the NetBSD camp.  I'm assuming that
your running your 950 via a serial console, as I haven't heard anything
about the IOP problem being fixed as of yet.
