This message comes from sys/hpcmips/dev/bicons.c.
So, the kernel has been loaded successfully.

It is same as my A-15.

If it is going normaly, there are any lines displayed in a second.

Please try again with pbsdboot.mips.990404.zip
if you use pbsdboot.mips.990402.zip.

Pbsdboot.mips.990404.zip flush data cache after the kernel is
loaded but pbsdboot.mips.990402.zip dose not flush data cache.

If you have a compact flash card, copy the pbsdboot.exe and
the kernel -- netbsd into your card and rename pbsdboot.exe to
'VoiceApp.exe'.
And push Voice rec button on the side to start the boot loader.
There is no need to use Windows service on the desktop.
