- OK, I'm back listening here. I thought I should comment on some of
- the messages seen on the netbsd-amiga list

- Well, yes I am/was... My own compilation based on bsdsyssrc.394 works
- fine. However I'm trying Markus' 531 compilation with which I'm having
- problems.

- Ahem... A2000/GVP series II has worked for me since bsdsyssrc.360 or
- something like that...

- This behaviour is what I get with vmunix.531 on my A2000/GVPII.
- Well, I had to inhibit sync on a small SEAGATE disk I've borrowed
- since I get sbic_wait TIMEO with csr=x48 (from memory, exact wordings
- available on request) with sync negotiation enabled. I have a 4M
- fast RAM system, are they still supported? I saw Markus W ramble
- about some extra couple of 100 Ks in ringbuffers which might disturb
- small machines.

- I get this behaviour when booting from 1.3, but *not* from zkicked 2.0,
- odd, no?
