(386/387, SCSI controller Adaptec 1542C, 8Mb memory,etc etc running
NetBSD 0.8)

I mentioned this little beauty in a previous post, but I finally caught
what was causing my machine to have a little trap and then immediatly
reboot without me being able to actually read the display....

the line (/etc/rc)
"kvm_mkdb /386bsd"

causes 

trap type 19 code=0 eip=fe000bc7 cs=8 eflags=246 cr2 39000 cpl 0 panic: trap

type 19 is an NMI trap

any ideas anyone (or at least say to me and say "NetBSD 0.9 will fix
everything for you" :-) )

Any good ideas ?

Thanks,
Andrew.
