System: NetBSD cowboy-burt 1.4.1 NetBSD 1.4.1 (COWBOY-BURT) #1: Sat Oct 2 21:08:08 EDT 1999 dan@cowboy-burt:/amd/dinah-moe/export/src/sys/arch/sparc/compile/COWBOY-BURT sparc


>Description:

the pmax installboot needs a '-s' like the alpha one.  This restores the checksum
needed for the disk to be bootable by a sparc.  
	
>How-To-Repeat:

create an iso image
run mksunbootcd to make it sparc bootable
run the pmax installboot to make it pmax bootable
try and boot on a sparc, get error about bad checksum
	
>Fix:

workaround:

after the pmax installboot, run the alpha installboot with -s.
