Ok.  Well, I'd like to use and have been trying the most times on my /sys 
which is linked to /my /usr/src/sys which is linked to 
/afs/sipb.mit.edu/project/netbsd/dev/current-source/src/sys.  The kernal works 
nicely, but...

It's PCI.  I don't think you need either in compiling the kernel.  I didn't 
need to enter either when I compiled a kernel out of the above mentioned path 
for my 3c590 and it worked (except libafs, of course).
