Hi,

I am trying to get a old Sun Ultra 40 AMD64 to work on OpenBSD (preferably
current). I have tried many different snapshots of 4.8 current (I will try
on the 4.8 stable later in a week or so!)

I copied bsd.rd from the Oct 22 snapshot as /nbsd.rd, went to the UKC to set
with verbose option but it scrolls too fast to see exactly what's the
problem. I don't have a floppy or serial console on this machine so can't
save the dmesg somewhere. I get a fatal protection fault in supervisor mode,
press any key to reboot (it happens near the uhubN lines in the scrolling
dmesg around the Pentium MTRR line).

4.7 installs fine, but X won't work as this machine has a NVIDIA Quadro FX
380 (graphics card failed after 3 years), which is probably in 4.8 stable
according to this page (change in May 2010)
http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb/xenocara/driver/xf86-video-nv/src/nv_driver.c

I have emailed the dmesg from 4.7. What can I do to get the dmesg from the
-current bsd.rd to help diagnose what's wrong or what changed?

Thanks for help
