NetBSD 3.0.2, 4.0.1, and 5.0.1 issue.

[Fabian La Maestra <flamaest%gmail.com@localhost>]

Hello,

I am almost sure if this is a bug, and I am posting some results until
i can get a second hpcmips IBM z50 to confirm this issue:


I recently was trying to install NetBSD for hpcmips 5.0.1 onto my z50.
I notice that the 5.0.1 install kernal will freeze randomly [also
tried 4.0.1 and 3.0.2 ] within the install process while selecting
menu options or anything in between. I don't have this problem with
the 1.5.x install kernal.

Could someone try loading this install kernal with pbsdboot and seeing
if you also have this freezing problem? [need to go through the enitre
install to make sure]

ftp://ftp.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD/NetBSD-5.0/hpcmips/installation/netbsd.gz

Also, if I launch the installer kernal and let it sit at any install
menu [or even try to
run through  the install quickly].. my z50 keeps halting [freezing]
after about 45 seconds of runtime.

Thanks,
Fabian
