NetBSD on external HDD won't boot

today, I've tried to install NetBSD 5.1 on an external USB drive. The third attempt to install the OS finally went through the installation process till its end. Then I configured Grub2 on the internal HDD to start NetBSD from the external drive. The boot process starts but then suddenly stops (not necessarily at the same position!). After some minutes this message appears: Quote:

Not necessarily. Now you can report the error on a NetBSD mailing list

Hmmm, funny thing - yesterday evening I tried it again with "pkgin install firefox" and now it went through without any problem
Maybe an explanantion: Before I have installed some packages by using pkgsrc (opera and opera-plugins). Maybe the correct dependencies came this way. |
