Is there some simple way to reboot with a kernel other than /netbsd (or
more precisely, one other than what ufsboot wants to load)? I'm used
to doing something akin to "cat ./newbsd >/dev/reload" to try out new
kernels, but I can't find any reference to a similar device on the Sun3
port.
Short of a /dev/reload sort of interface, what's a good way to test
new kernels w/o sacrificing the integrity (read bootability) of
a system?
