NetBSD 1.6 / 2.0.2 panics on Sun 3/180

I've spent the better part of this afternoon coaxing my Sun 3/180 back 
into breathing, and have finally got it to boot the netbsd-INSTALL.gz 
kernel, but it panics:

http://ned.cc.purdue.edu/sun3/sun3-180-netbsd-1.6-panic.txt

I've tried using the 1.6 installer and 2.0.2 installer kernel, with the 
same results.

Any suggestions?  Am I doing something wrong?

Pat

Well, I've booted up a 3/50 with 12 megs using a custom 2.0 kernel (the INSTALL
kernel is too big to boot in the first 4 megs) I've also got a 3/80 running
1.6.1 for quite a while now.

I have a 3/110 that I could try and netboot.

I'd like to come and have a look at the gear. I'm in Toronto.

My 3/280 needed this kernel patch before if_ie would pass packets without 
faulting. It only recently got merged, so I don't think it's in 2.0.2.

Hi,

So what state is your machine in exactly?  Are you
trying to net install 1.6.x or 2.0 from scratch, or
update an existing system?

I've got a 3/80 with 16MB and I did have to pare down
the 2.0 kernel a little to get it to boot clean after
I built a custom kernel.

Ok, I decided to try and install from tape (Sun/Fujitsu 9-track drive, on 
a Xylogics controller), since netbooting wasn't working.

This is how far I got:

>b xt()
Boot: xt(0,0,0)
>> NetBSD/sun3 tapeboot [1.11]
tapeboot: loading segment 1
1172928+140360=0x140b7c
Starting program at 0x8000

Exception 0x2C at 0x0E004050.

I found a similar (but slightly different) error via google, but there 
was nothing helpful there to get me past the error.  This was using 
2.0.2, and MakeBootTape and MakeInstTape scripts to make the tap, on a 
NetBSD/vax machine.  The machine has 16MB of ram in it.

Any ideas on what the problem is there?  I could try making 1.6 tapes,

OK, I cross-compiled a new kernel based off netbsd-currnet (which has 
that patch in it).  I'm trying to boot the machine diskless, and it 
boots up until this point and then freezes:

warning: no /dev/console
init: Creating mfs /dev (363 blocks, 896 inodes)

I used the default config for the "GENERIC" kernel when I compiled it.

The LEDs still chase back/forth on the back of the machine, but I've 
waited at least 20 minutes and the machine didn't go any further.
