I am using boot32 revision 3.40, and the netbsd-RPC_WSCONS kernel (which I 
unzipped and later learned that this was not necessary) from NetBSD-2.0. Is 
there a newer boot32? 

And still, I do NOT understand why it needs a 25472K wimpslot with boot32 
(read the last mail for more info). I do not understand the amount, and I do 
not understand that I have to set it by myself, if it is able to extend the 
wimpslot by itself.
