I'll try it, but I don't think it will make any difference. I will be
getting a new drive for the machine tonight, so NetBSD will be reinstalled
then. I will give it a shot after the reinstall is complete, since I'll be
replacing the 5400rpm EIDE drive with a 10000rpm Ultra/Wide SCSI, and that
should make things a good bit faster.
