I have an old laptop (a Thinkpad 701) with an external scsi cabinet,
and a netbsd-supported pcmcia adapter. There's no room on the internal
disk for netbsd and windows, and I can't boot from the scsi disk, as
far as I know. Is there any way to run netbsd from the scsi drive?
Perhaps with a kernel (built with root on sd0a) on a floppy? on dos?
