The message is misleading. It actually says that *if* you were to get errors from your (new) coprocessor, they would be reported via the Exception 16. The message appeared because you now have a co-processor which is found by the kernel and it just says that. The misleading message has been changed in FreeBSD-current and shows that now : npx0 on motherboard >any ideas anyone??? Im still runing 386bsd with the patches. Do yourself a favor, switch to either FreeBSD or NetBSD, they are both a long way better than 386bsd. I recommend the former as I'm running it...
