There was another line at the top that was preceeded by some non 
displayable characters.. but toward the end of that line it had:

"page fault trap" leads me to believe that the extra memory is causing 
problems. Does NetBSD actually limit access to 4 gig? Could there be 
some bugs that's causing it to access portions above 4 gig no matter how 
much physical memory I have installed?
