The mvme68k kernel directory contains a gzip'ed VME147 specific kernel
image. This should be used when upgrading from a previous version of
NetBSD. Before starting the upgrade, you should unzip and copy this
kernel in place of your existing /netbsd image, then reboot.
The mvme68k binary distribution sets are distributed as gzipped tar files.
Each mvme68k binary distribution set also has its own "CKSUMS" file, just
as the source distribution sets do.
