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!
