Just installed the latest snapshot on a Lemote 8089D:

Prep miniroot on USB stick:

        $ what miniroot68.img
        /home/kn/miniroot68.img:
        OpenBSD 6.8 (RAMDISK) #52: Mon Sep 28 18:29:30 MDT 2020
        PD KSH v5.2.14 99/07/13.2
        # dd if=./miniroot68.img of=/dev/rsd2c bs=1m
        9+0 records in
        9+0 records out
        9437184 bytes transferred in 4.526 secs (2084909 bytes/sec)

Plug in, power on Lemote, drop to PMON and boot bsd.rd off USB:

        PMON> boot -k /dev/fs/ext2@usb0/bsd.rd

Installer boots, I default to everything, i.e. auto layout on wd0, all
sets (fetched over HTTPS), enable X, hint final <enter> to reboot.

Machine comes back up and the very top left corner of the screen shows
this in white on black:

        file is not set or not exist!
        path is not complete, haven't selected the device or file!
        The boot.cfg not existed!System will try default entry from al.

(Like this with missing line break and "al." not "all.").


Very bottom left corner shows the kernel in white on blue:

        Trap cause = 2 frame 0xffffffffaff7fb18
        Trap PC 0xffffffff80100248 RA 0xffffffff8006b3e0 fault 
00xfffffffffffa4f8
        panic: trap
        System Halt.


I have never booted this machine before, it is the first time I am
installing a loongson machine.
