Hi folks,
I had to update my BIOS of my Gigabyte GA-6BXS because it did not support an
P-III. The system works but it does not boot anymore :-(
I can boot from the NetBSD install disk and type "boot sd0a:netbsd", but
that is NOT what I want. I don't want to reinstall NetBSD before 1.5 is
released.
Any hints?
Thanks!
