Well what I do not understand is that 1) the machine boot from the install cdrom as boot -f pci(0)scsi(0)cdrom(4)rdisk(0)partition(8)ip3xboot witch invokes pci(0)scsi(0)cdrom(4)rdisk(0)partition(8)ip3x with this dmesg: > boot -f pci(0)scsi(0)cdrom(4)rdisk(0)partition(8)ip3xboot 50624+1376 entry: 0x80002000 NetBSD/sgimips 4.99.49 Bootstrap, Revision 1.2 (builds@wb30, Mon Jan 21 21:48:00 PST 2008) devopen: pci(0)scsi(0)cdrom(4)rdisk(0)partition(0) type scsi file ip3x 9240016+202016=0x901694 [ Kernel symbol table missing! ] Copyright (c) 1996, 1997, 1998, 1999, 2000, 2001, 2002, 2003, 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008 The NetBSD Foundation, Inc.
