As the machine is normally my file server, it will probably be tomorrow before I can arrange to capture the actual messages. In the meantime, the machine's "/boot.cfg" file: # rndseed not available though PXE/NFS #menu=Boot normally:rndseed /var/db/entropy-file;boot netbsd #menu=Boot single user:rndseed /var/db/entropy-file;boot netbsd -s #menu=Disable ACPI:rndseed /var/db/entropy-file;boot netbsd -2 #menu=Disable ACPI and SMP:rndseed /var/db/entropy-file;boot netbsd -12 #menu=Disable SMP:rndseed /var/db/entropy-file;boot netbsd -1 # Hmm.

Not on this machine, yet. I can arrange to test -current when I capture the module-loading messages for 8.0_BETA. -- |/"\ John D.
