Unfortunately, I?m not able to build you an install media image for another week or so.  If someone else wants to volunteer to build a NetBSD 11 branch installer image with this patch applied, that would be swell.

I've built NetBSD 11.0_RC1 with the patch here:

Did you get a chance to try the installation image that John spun for you?  I’d really like to get this fix into NetBSD-11.0 release if possible, but I think RC2 was just tagged and I’m afraid we’re about to miss the boat on that.


Sorry. I ordered 1GB of memory for the machine and that has taken weeks
to get delivered. I am promised that I will have it by Monday?
Maybe Tuesday?

Once I see that memory installed ... well you know. I will jump on this.

Good news is that I have CDROM-R media and that works like a charm. So
I can really do the test with the CD image. Late Tuesday?
Maybe Wednesday.
