Installed latest 1.4.3a snapshot (20000205 kern.tgz did not work).
Turned off most options in rc.conf. Booted off of HD fine and seemed
stable. Concluded that NetBSD works on a s900. #reboot to announce to
the world(via Linux ppp connection) and:

mesh: timeout state=3
mesh: resetting dma

(hard lockup requiring power off)

almost there guys
