Sure, but my point was that with the loader, NetBSD *never* outputs 
anything before breaking, and when using same Hatari options & kernel 
with "loadbsd.ttp", it *always* outputs stuff on screen before breaking.

I.e. clearly the loader is not working properly, compared to running 
NetBSD from TOS / loadbsd.ttp.

Maybe it's not setting some HW state similarly to TOS, that NetBSD 
expects to be done for it?

(Linux kernel had very minor problem with that too, which I'm fixing in 
kernel sources.)
