Subject: another job, same problem

So, I just started my new job yesterday, and they gave me an Ultra/5
to work on. I tried to install NetBSD on it, but I had the same
problem I had at my last job when I tried: NetBSD's kernel clobbers
the NVRAM when it starts up, setting MAC address, serial number,
etc. to 0.
I've got this computer for rather longer than I had access to the last
one, so I'll be perfectly willing to help somebody fix this, if
they're willing. I don't have a NetBSD/sparc64 compile environment,
though, so I can't do that much on my own.
Chris
