Hi Everyone,
I have downloaded NetBSD 1.2, gunzip'd it, and completed a dd onto the
destination disk. After this was completed, I then proceeded to boot off
the new disk. The system followed its various init messages, then
proceeds to boot, then comes to the >> prompt. I have tried using the
boot -fl s <device> and I get the same result. The disk that dd'd the
image onto was the 1.05 disk. Is this a problem? Should the destination
disk have been created first with newfs then dd'd?
Any suggestions or comments would be appreciated.
Matt
