I only have an arm based 728 (which is buried somewhere currently
beyond reach, so I can't even test), but as a quick data point do the
attach messages for the wd, atabus and related devices differ between
-8 and -9? Its possible that DMA is/is not being enabled between the
two versions.

Also would you be able to test a HEAD kernel (from
http://nyftp.netbsd.org/) booting?

Thanks
