I'm new to netBSD and need some help getting my Qube2 running.

So far I've copied netbsd-GENERIC.gz  to /boot, set up a box to serve up 
the Qube's ip address and file system.

Things appear to go well until it executes the bootloader kernel.

        Cobalt: bfd /boot/netbsd-GENERIC.gz root=/dev/nfs 
nfsroot=/data/netBSD
        Decompressing done
        Executing bootloader kernel...

I'm not hearing any disk activity, the LCD reads "Starting Up", there's 
network traffic. 15 minutes later I'm still seeing more of the same.

Any assistance would be appreciated.
