I used the 1.6 installation to build a NetBSD 2.0.2. The Raq1 was netbooted
and installed with 2.0.2. I cleared the mbr partition table using dd and
used fdisk to create new partitions. The kernel no longer panics when using
fdisk. The first partition starts at sector 63; from memory i think the old
layout started at sector 1. That might have been a problem.

I do have 2 problems left:
1) the clock on the rack runs too fast; about 2 seconds pass for 1 second in
   "real" time. ntp is unable to adjust the time. Is this also a general
   problem or maybe just something wrong with my configuration or hardware?
2) I get those "pmap_unwire: wiring for pmap ... didn't change!" messages.
   Reading the list archive, this seems to be connected to caching issues on
   mips and some fixes have been committed to
   -CURRENT. Will theses changed be commited to 2.0?

TIA,
Oliver

P.S. Kernel configuration attached.
