Hi,
I am just trying to get NetBSD on my last computer (after seeing the
kernel debugger too often with Linux). The only problem is that Linux uses
Bootx with the current monitor configuration whereas NetBSD uses Open
Firmware which works partly with the internal ATI (bad sync) and not at
all for me with a Voodoo3 (only 640x480 under OF).

I have 2 Questions:
Which ATI modes do sync (if any)

Has anyone been succesful booting or even seeing a directory of a cd under
OF (on a 4400)?

Regards, Torsten
