problems with NetBSD2.0 AMD64 install: msg#00027

os.netbsd.ports.x86-64

Subject:	problems with NetBSD2.0 AMD64 install

Hi,

after waiting for the 2.0 release, I decided that is was time for me to install NetBSD 2.0 AMD64 on my laptop (an Acer Aspire 1501Lmi, with a AMD 64 bits 3000+ processor). I downloaded the ISO, made boot discs, and started to install... not!

This is all I got to see:

'NETBSD/i386 ustarfs Primary Bootstrap

NETBSD/AMD64 BIOS BOOT, Revision 3.1

(ascent@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx, Sat Dec 11 16:48:26 CET 2004)

Memory: 638/522176 k

Press return to boot now, any other key for bootmenu

booting fd0b:netbsd

3582240+2958024+373112=0x798780

The '_' blinks a few times, the 'cell' becomes filled, and then the system freezes.

Does anyone have a clue? Is there a certain solution?

thanks in advance,

Yori
