You _must_ have these two options enabled in your kernel config file:

options         M68060          # support for 060
options         M060SP          # MC68060 software support (Required for 060)

Other than that I could not think of anything. Don't try some compiler
flags of your own, those are more likely to break the kernel than
enhance it, if you're not absolutely sure of what you're doing.

If you only copied the GENERIC file to a config file that existed
before, "make clean" in the compile directory (after doing "config
amelia060"), before making "depend" and "netbsd". It's generally a
good idea to clean all the object files when you changed some global
options.
