Right. 

On NetBSD/Amiga, the kernel messages (starting with the famous

NetBSD 1.4P (ISDN17) #4: Sun Jan 16 22:28:14 MET 2000
    is@jocelyn:/build2/i4b/ISDN17
DraCo rev.4 (68060 rev.1 CPU/MMU/FPU)
total memory = 65536 KB
avail memory = 58888 KB

are printed after the initial MMU setup and the pre/round of autoconfig
information (including console device selection) have succeeded.

You can guess how much joy it was to get the DraCo to boot that far, without
real debugging output...
