Hi!

This is a known issue with NetBSD/sun3x 1.3.2.  The workaround that I
ended up using on my Sun 3/80 is pretty simple:  Just fetch the ramdisk
kernel from the older NetBSD 1.3 distribution -- it will boot properly and
allow you to install the miniroot for the NetBSD 1.3.2 distribution.

Good luck!
