I have a HP9000/425 which has been running NetBSD 1.0A for some time now.

This weekend, I took it upon myself to upgrade to 1.1.  So I have several
false starts doing backups, then get to the fun part: Booting.

My machine, upon being turned on, says:
BOOTROM  Rev. 2.0  29 NOV 90
MD11 REV 1.95 1990/12/12.14:35:26
MC68040 Processor
(etc.)

:HP 2213A, 1406, 0
1Z SYS_PBOOT

The 486 running rbootd under FreeBSD beside it says:

It fails to notice the tape with SYS_INST dd'ed onto it in the tape drive
(a HP DAT drive).  It also fails to notice the second SCSI drive with 
SYS_INST randomly dd'ed, or disklabel -B -b SYS_INST 'ed onto it.

Does anyone have any ideas for how to boot?  Perhaps a diskimage I could
dd to the second drive?  

Thanks in advance for your help!
