Hi all,

I just tried out the image brought to us by Dennis Chernoivanov. The
Installation was succesfull till the moment the cobalt rebooted. I got
the following error and the raq did not startup - it halted.

Unfortunally i am a newbie in NetBSD and do not know how to fix this
problem. I installed a brandnew 20G ExcelStor Harddisk instead of the
original 3G HDD. Who can help?
