ftp://ftp.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD/NetBSD-2.0/vax/INSTALL.html says:
Creating boot floppies
Fetch the bootable bootfs image from
.../NetBSD-2.0/vax/installation/bootfs/boot.fs
and gunzip it. It is a 1.2MB bootable image that will boot from any
floppy of size 1.2MB and bigger.
Unfortunately
ftp://ftp.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD/NetBSD-2.0/vax/installation/bootfs/boot.
fs is not in gzip format, and it is 2400 kb.
Can't NetBSD 2.0/vax be installed from floppy? Is the documentation
outdated?
