   But, then I also get back to the original question.  Windows
Adv. Server 2003, FreeBSD 5.2.1 (or -current, I forget), and
BSD/OS 5.1 all ran just fine on this hardware with no memory/
NMI problems, using the full 1GB that seems to throw NetBSD
-current for a loop.  (Oh, and the 1.6.2 install floppies, too,
so I suppose it stands for any NetBSD).  Why in the heck would
that be?
