Hello,

	I'm installing an i386 version of NetBSD 1.3_ALPHA.
	I've chosen the "install" option presented to me after
	booting up from the installation floppy. I've copied
	the kernel to /dev/wd0a. For some reason, I'm
	getting the "Boot record not found on IDE-0" message
	at start up. Can someone enlighten me on how to install
	a boot record ? I got an "installing boot record on wd0"
	message during the installation procedure, but somehow
	still cannot boot properly from harddisk after reboot.

	Is there a separate installation note for 1.3_ALPHA ? (I've read
	the 1.2 installation note but don't find anything applicable to
	installing boot record.)

	Best regards.

Baw
