ski + skiload + GENERIC.SKI

[KIYOHARA Takashi <kiyohara%kk.iij4u.or.jp@localhost>]

Hi! all,


I try to boot GENERIC.SKI on ski.  However don't boot...
I found 3 problems.
# I see http://netbsd.org/ports/ia64/faq.html


First, skiload don't work on NetBSD/i386 with ski.  I typed 'c',  then
see 'Unable to open console window'.
