did this hit console access though on Qube2s?

I am working with a new-to-me Qube2, I put this Feb 28 restore CD on  
it via a vmware load of the iso.  so I could not monitor the instal,  
but It seems to work fine, except....

I can't get console to stay with me past:

Decompressing \ done.

(nothing more).

I seem to need console as the device comes up with a hostname of  
q-160.netbsd.org (not that big a deal) and won't let me in via telnet  
or ssh (that's more of a deal).

After setting the IP from the LCD panel:

I will reinstall I think from the earlier RC and make any edits; pull  
down the new kernel sources from there.

Please do let me know if I am missing something, this would not be the  
first time---
