Well, I guess the question should have been does anyone have a working
Beige G3 rev. a (hardware and with NetBSD) that they would like to sell?

I am still not able to get either one of the open firmware 2.0fl systems
to boot. I just can't understand it because the 2.4 system I was able to
get working and I did exactly the same thing with both of them. I just
can't understand what I am missing. I guess that I could have the wrong
mac address, but most of the time nothing is logged on the dhcpd server.
Also, I guess that I may need to reinstall with 2.0fl system before it
will boot from the drive.

Thanks,
Al
