That's ok, you never ask me I think. And you were right!! I have 96MB Mem=
ory, and I startet now the NetBSD wit <44MB (that's limit it does work) t=
hen it functions without any problem!!

I'm very new with NetBSD, so I never compiled a new kernel. Is it possibl=
e that you tell me where I can get your kernel, if you have done it? =


*Thank you a lot* for solving this problem!!!!

With many thanks
