I've downloaded your kernel and it boots! Thank you!
To get it into the G3, I copied it (netbsd.VINYAMAR) to a
CD, booted the G3
using the installation kernel, copied netbsd.VINYAMAR to /
alongside the
previous (freezing) netbsd, used chmod to change its
permissions to the same as
the previous netbsd (I don't know if this is actually
necessary), restarted, and
then booted the new kernel from OF with
boot hd:4,ofwboot.xcf hd:5,/netbsd.VINYAMAR
in other words exactly what I was doing before but with a
different kernel
filename. It works!
The new kernel does behave a little differently from the
installation kernel - I
had to do
stty erase '^H'
to get the delete key to work properly (as suggested in
INSTALL.html) but it has
cured the freezing problem. Now I'm going to read your
config file very
carefully ...
Thanks again,
Nick
