 	I'd suggest installing a NetBSD-4.0 BETA2 snapshot from
 	ftp://ftp.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD/NetBSD-daily/netbsd-4/

 	It means you'll start with gcc4, which is what any current
 	NetBSD developers are likely to be using, so avoiding any
 	gcc3/gcc4 mismatches (not that there *should* be any, but...)

 	I've been running NetBSD-4.0 BETA2 on my x86 hardware for a while
 	without any problems (unless you count a thinkpad waiting an
 	extra 30 seconds on booting when probing the CD drive, which is
 	annying, but not earth shattering)
