ATTENTION NetBSD/m68k USERS:
If you want to run Basilisk II natively (i.e. without CPU emulation), you
must NOT use a pthreads library. User-level threads libraries such as PTL
interfere with the signal handlers installed by Basilisk II and kernel-
level threads are not supported by NetBSD, so you will have to live without
pthreads (and thus, without serial/ethernet/audio support).
ATTENTION NetBSD/mac68k USERS:
Current (as of July 2000) versions of the NetBSD/mac68k kernel have a bug
that not only prevents Basilisk II from running properly but seems to even
cause kernel panics under certain conditions! Apply the following patch to
/sys/arch/mac68k/mac68k/macromasm.s, recompile and re-install the kernel
and reboot before using Basilisk II:
