Just installed 4.0_BETA2restorecd200708220002Z.iso on my loced qube.
Installation took around 20 minutes on the 80GB disk installed in the
qube. Installations run's fine, but after installation some tweaking was
neccessary.
DHCP was not working due to missing bpf devices, also the panel was not
working. After loging in via Serial cable and running MAKEDEV init panel
bpf the qube is running fine.
Only problem left is that paneld does not display anithing, it is
running, not consuming allot of resources like it did on the former
netbsd. echo "text" > /dev/lcd works, so it's not too bad.
some resources:
hoe to get the serial running:

the bpf fix: http://mail-index.netbsd.org/port-cobalt/2007/08/10/0004.html
the panel fix: http://mail-index.netbsd.org/port-cobalt/2007/04/15/0000.html
So do not try to install the box without a serial cable available :-)
thanks to all who contribute
Andreas
