A3000 booting NetBSD :-(

Using NetBSD 1.6 from the official Wasabi CDs

Amiga A3000 with:
A2065 Ethernet Card
Memory expansion card (68MB populated)
SCSI seagate drive for boot netbsd
native video

I hold down the mouse keys to get the boot menu
I select the partition where I've copied the netbsd kernel
machine resets itself and starts to boot netbsd
I get:

boot [netbsd -ASn2]:

I hit enter letting it take the defaults, it shows that
its reading the kernel and getting set up - then it says
that its going to load in freemem at 4000000 and the screen
goes grey with the edges of the screen having contracted into
a smaller screen size.

At this point nothing happens, and I'm a bit confused.
Any Amiga gurus out there that might have a pointer (or two)?
successfully installed on my intel box, but trying it on my
A3000.

thanks,

jerry
