I tried to implement irisboot "lazymode" for about a week.
https://github.com/nullnilaki/irisboot_lazymode

Unfortunately, It is too large for Indigo R3K.
https://github.com/nullnilaki/NetBSD_irisboot/blob/master/irisboot.diff#L226
It can not loading kernel...

Let's put irisboot "lazymode" implementation plan on hold.

I am sorry for the inconvenience...
