Hi guys,

I'm having some difficulty installing 1.3.3 on an IBM PS/1 with a
P83 overdrive. The only information I have about the BIOS is it's
date -- 03/16/95.

1. Booting NetBSD causes BIOS values to altered. I would guess that
the problem lies with NetBSD attempting to set the system clock.
I'm seeing:

WARNING: NVRAM century is 38 but RTC year is 98
WARNING: CHECK AND RESET THE DATE!

on startup. Rebooting the computer results in the BIOS complaining
about configuration errors and the time and date being improperly
set. Any changes to BIOS values tend to be consistent; for example,
the graphics mode is reset from Super VGA to VGA, and a disabled
serial port is enabled. The BIOS clock, which is set to local time,
however, is not affected, despite the error message.

Otherwise, the system works properly, and the correct date is reported.

2. Attempting to mount my atapi CD-ROM drive fails with the error message:

mount_cd9660: : Input/output error

Mounts fail under both 1.3.3 and 1.3I. I've recompiled my kernel
with 'options SCSIDEBUG', and included both its output and that of
dmesg. Any ideas?

Thanks!
