Ok I just did a cvs checkout today,confiured a kernel for comconsolestuck in
the above suggested changes and built it.

It is ready for testing ...
it is at the following ftp server :

ftp://204.57.142.148/pub/express/

The three files are
1. netbsd  'elf kernel' to go in root as /netbsd
2. netbsd.ecoff  (the 'bootable' kernel)
3. r2200 the configuration file I used to build kernel.


  Now if RiscServer Express boots, we will have to make a change to
arcbios.c to read the size of the cache memory. After making
the above change to machdep.c to use a '1 meg' cache
causes the kernel to now crash on RiscServer 2200
since it has a '2 meg' cache memory...
