Hello,

when booting kernel on Cassiopeia BE-300 i encountered following problems:

It suspended at the moment of wdc0 detection. After commenting out line
`wdc0    at isa4 port 0x170 irq 0x02000003 flags 0x0002  # single drive'
in the config, kernel passed further.

It also froze after _splnone() called from cpu_configure() in 
arch/hpcmips/hpcmips/autoconf.c
If this line commented out in cpu_configure(), kernel boots till root 
device prompt.

Some questions:
  Did anybody successfuly install NetBSD at BE-300?
  Where can i find correct settings for wdc0?
  What's a problem with _splnone()? Is it ok to remove this call from 
cpu_configure()?
