Hi Frank,

I don't know anything about netatalk, but I think it's not compiled in 
the default kernel (GENERIC)

/usr/src/sys/arch/cobalt/conf
$ grep -i netatalk GENERIC
#options        NETATALK        # AppleTalk (over Ethernet) protocol

I think you should compile your own kernel ....

Regards,
Rodrigo
