When I boot the machine diskless from the network, the NetBSD kernel
probes the SCSI bus and sees the drive, and it "works fine". I am
able to install NetBSD on to the drive, but since the PROM doesn't
get along with it, I can't boot from it after NetBSD has been
installed.
So does anyone have a solution for getting the PROM to be
happy about the drive?
