Hi there,

I'm new to NetBSD and decided to give it a spin.  I tried installing with
the boot image from version 1.3.3 (boot.fs)  Unfortunately, both on an
IBM ThinkPad 760 and an HP Vectra desktop, my floppy drive light goes
on and my screen displays an underscore (_) cursor and stays that way.
I've tried dd and rawrite (from dos) to get the image to different floppies
from different machines, and I'm afraid I may be missing something very
basic somewhere.  Can someone give me a pointer?

Thank you very much,

-John
