>Description:
On my SONY NEWS (NWS-5000SB), NetBSD/newsmips works fine until 7.99.32. But recent current does not boot.

I have successfully some iso images, 7.99.32, 7.99.34 and so on and tried them. The problem occurred with 7.99.34.

>How-To-Repeat:
1. prepare NEWS, which can 'bo tftp'
2. set up BOOTP/NFS server
   put netbsd-INSTALL.gz or netbsd-GENERIC.gz as nfsserver:/netbsd
3. boot the NEWS by 'bo tftp'

>Fix:
unfortunately I do not.
