I believe I got it here
ftp://ftp.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD-daily/netbsd-3/200508120000Z/hpcsh/binary/

I'm sure I updated it on the DOS partition of the CF card and it is 
booting properly because the old kernel announced 3.99.3.

The kernel files there are a different size than the ones I 
downloaded, so I'll give it a try.

Why the one from 0824 instead of the most recent one?
