Can you netboot them? Or, can you dd a disk image onto a disk for it
from another system? Damn Jensen can't boot from floppy.
After I commit my Alpha Processor, Inc. UP1000 code (probably today; it
booted the system install tool fine, although there was a glitch in
PCI configuration space handling which I have now fixed), I'll probably
resurrect my Jensen code and get it merged into -current (should be
trivial).
