Hi! all,


Please test the boot(8) 1.9.

  http://ftp.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD/misc/kiyohara/tmp/prep-boot.fs

Down-load and dd(1) it to your floppy.


My prep's firmware can't load the boot and latest fatted in-kernel.
However can to load more(less?) slim custom kernel by it.

And difficult to enjoy at current with a in-kernel.
I wish to load more kernels from HDD/file-system.  for netbsd, onetbsd
etc...

prep's boot(8) 1.9 supports to load kernel from sd(4) via siop(4).
Currently support is on-board 53c810 only.
I don't know other controller on main-board.  ;-<


>> NetBSD/prep BOOT, Revision 1.9 (Sat Feb 18 10:24:04 JST 2012)

sd(T,L,[0-7]): <YOUR-SCSI-DEVICE-NAME>
 : (T is terget, L is lun.
 : (more listed, if you has more HDDs :)

Boot: _


You can type 'sd(0,0,0)netbsd'.  Try to load 'netbsd' at 'a' pertition
on sd(4) target 0 lun 0 via siop.

Thanks,
