Hi,

New to NetBSD on Alpha. Many DEC UNIX installs.

Have Ross Harvey bootable CD V1.4

Attempting new install....

I read the install notes. It does not seem to say directly how to 
start off the CD, so I did what is usual for a DEC UNIX installation.

Here is what happens...

>>> boot dka400

NetBSD/Alpha 1.4 ISO 9660 Primary Bootstrap
Jumping to entry point ....
NetBSD/Alpha 1.4 Secondary Bootstrap, Revision 1.10
(ross@netbsd.......)

VMS PAL rev: 0x100010538
OSF PAL rev: 0x2012d

Switch to OSF PAL code succeeded.

Boot flags : A

Loading netbsd....
open netbsd: No such file or directory

Loading netbsd.gz.....
5431376+211944 [85]

Entering netbsd.gz at 0xfffffc0000301100

Any help greatly appreciated
