Thank you for the report.

Can you please tell me which release/update of NetBSD-i386 you are running?

Also, for future reference, are you using the audio and video in additon
to the networking and IDE?

Lastly, sorry for the many questions! Does your board have the VIA C3 CPU
or the Eden ESP Series CPU?
