Since booting the new kernel works, you could download: https://cdn.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD/NetBSD-10.0_RC6/amd64/binary/kernel/netbsd-INSTALL.gz and put it in your (9.3) / dir, reboot, interrupt the boot countdown and drop to the boot prompt, then do: boot netbsd-INSTALL.gz This should load a 10.0_RC6 kernel with embedded ramdisk and installer. In sysinst select upgrade and fetch sets via network. Martin
