Subject: installation failure on ultra5

I tried 1.5.2 installation by using a diskless setup on Ultra5.
However, when the box tries to boot up, it stops with the message,
"init: copying out path '/sbin/init' 11", like below.

RARP/NFS server is Linux box.
I put following files on server.
/tftpboot/ofwboot.net, /tftpboot/xxxxxxxx (hex IP address of
client_box, link to ofwboot.net), untar base.tgz, etc.tgz, and
instfs.tgz under /tftpboot/netbsd, create /tftpboot/netbsd/swap,
extract netbsd.GENERIC.gz and put it under /tftpboot/netbsd as same
as ofwboot
And I put following information on server.
/etc/ethers: X:X:X:X box
/etc/bootparams: box root=xxx.xxx.xxx.13:/tftpboot/netbsd gateway=xxx.xxx.xxx.13:255.255.0.0
/tftpboot/netbsd/etc/hosts: put server and client addresses
/tftpboot/netbsd/etc/myname: box
/tftpboot/netbsd/etc/ifconfig.hme0: put client IP address
/tftpboot/netbsd/etc/fstab: server:/tftpboot/netbsd / nfs rw 0 0
server:/tftpboot/netbsd/usr /usr nfs rw 0 0
/swap none swap sw
When I boot with "boot net netbsd -s", only I got another message,
"init: copying out flags '-s' 3". It also stopped loading at the same
point.
I'm missing something?
Any ideas?
