Install CD for NetBSD amd64 7.0 doesn't boot on Dell FX 160



It loads everything and starts.  After a screenfull or so of typical boot 
messages, the screen gets trashed.  Ctrl-Alt-DEL doesn't work.

Does anybody recognize this problem?  What can I do to collect more info?

I tried the no ACPI and no SMP options.  That didn't help.

The 6.0 CD acts the same way.

The FX-160 is a low power (no fan) box with a dual core Atom CPU plus 
hyperthreading so it looks like 4 CPUs.  This box has 4 GB of memory and an 
80 GB disk.
