NAME
autoconf —
diagnostics from the
autoconfiguration code
DESCRIPTION
When
NetBSD bootstraps it probes the innards of the
machine on which it is running and locates controllers, drives, and other
devices, printing out what it finds on the console. This procedure is driven
by a system configuration table which is processed by
config(1) and compiled into
each kernel. Devices which exist in the machine but are not configured into
the kernel are not detected.
DIAGNOSTICS
- Support for system type %d is not
present in this kernel.
- You tried to boot NetBSD on a
class of CPU type which it doesn't (or at least this compiled version of
NetBSD doesn't) understand.
- NetBSD does not yet support system type
%d (%s).
- You tried to boot NetBSD on an
unsupported system.
- WARNING: can't figure what device
matches %s.
- Unknown device.
- PALcode not valid
- You tried to boot NetBSD on a
system with an unknown version of the PALcode.
