 Hi,
 
 I just tried the boot loader from 4.0RC1 on an SS2.  I see:
 
   Rebooting with command: disk1:a -s                                    
   Boot device: /sbus/esp@0,800000/sd@1,0:a   File and args: -s
   >> NetBSD/sparc Secondary Boot, Revision 1.15

   Booting netbsd
   3194832+102384+235996 [182576+173520]=0x3c5c18
   OBP version 2, revision 2.9 (plugin rev 2)
    ...
   mainbus0 (root): SUNW,Sun 4/75: hostid 5570c1ea
    ...
 
 and it boots.  Is it possible for you to capture the exact messages when
 your SS2 fails to boot?
 
 Thanks,
