Yes. This was fixed a couple of months ago when a couple of dedicated IIsi/vx users took the time to find a fix. I integrated their fix into the main source tree and -current has supported the IIsi, IIvx, IIvi, and Performa 600 ADB systems since. You'll need to grab the latest snapshot kernel and booter 1.6 to get it to work, though. I suggest that you subscribe to the macbsd-general@netbsd.org mailing list for some more help--there are several IIsi users on that list. -allen -- Allen Briggs - end killing - allen.briggs@bev.net ** MacBSD == NetBSD/mac68k ** Where does all my time go? <a href="http://www.netbsd.org/">Guess.</a>
