I apologize if this has already been addressed. I installed NetBSD 9.2 on my Intel computer. Everything works well. (Well, the video lags a little). I downloaded netbsd-GENERIC.gz from http://nyftp.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD-daily/HEAD/latest/. I unzipped the file and copy it to the root directory as a file called current.
In general, for -HEAD, you have to get the gpufw.tar.xz and modules.tar.xz sets as well. Your problem may go away, or it may not, if you provide the firmware blobs: the new DRM driver doesn't work on older Intel integrated GPU cards (SandyBridge/IvyBridge gen.) if you boot the system in UEFI mode.
I reboot and select the new kernel. Everything appears to be working until the acpi checks? The PC locks up with a blank screen.
Or, is it this issue: https://mail-index.netbsd.org/current-users/2022/04/10/msg042172.html -RVP
