Hi,

NetBSD-amiga always works fine on 68060/604e board for me.
But there is another problem.  I cannot boot with only ONE IDE hard disk.
Kernel stops after detecting that disk and enters an endless wait (maybe
it ends, but I am not patient enough :)).

Also, I cannot use 2 SCSI hard disks (connected to SCSI controller on
68060/604e board) at once.  NetBSD print a lot of warinings saying
'Parity Error'.  IT ONLY HAPPEN DURING WRITES, so I use one FFS partition
on SCSI disk for reads only.

Note that everything's fine under AmigaOS, and the termination is correct.

        regards

                - Adam
