I finally got NetBSD 1.1 installed on to the hard disk (the only
SCSI device on this machine) on my 4/110. Now my problem is that when I
type "b sd(0,0,0)" at the PROM monitor, the PROM monitor gives me "Device
not found". Prior to that I was net booting from ie() which worked just
fine. The disk is definitely there because when I net boot and mount the
disk partitions, everything works just fine.
I noticed in the NetBSD 1.1 INSTALL document that it tells how to
specify the NetBSD kernel using the "OpenBOOT ROM", but I cannot put my
PROM monitor into "new" mode using "n" at the ">" prompt.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks.
Mike.
