>Description:
I tried newly released NetBSD-2.0 on my NEC MC-R550 with bulk 1GB CF.

The sysinst kernel can be booted via pbsdboot.exe, sysinst can work, disklabel is written successfully, but at newfs stage, the system hangs up.

NetBSD-1.6.2 can be installed but I erased it because I tried 2.0.

And, unfortunately, NetBSD-2.0/hpcmips works fine on 1GB Microdrive.

>How-To-Repeat:
Follow the installation step on hpcmips.
>Fix:
I want to know.
