	I just got the XL 266.  It comes up with VGA/VBE BIOS V1.5 and
	then goes into Alpha firmare V 4.41, has a 1GB quantum drive
	with NT.  I bought a 6.4 GB Quantum on which a friend loaded
	netbsd (he also runs an alpha),  also have DE450 ehternet and
	Matrox Millenium.

	Can't boot netbsd.  Got any suggestions?  Unable to break with
	^c at monitor level before entering firmware.

	If I try booting using firmware,  it comes back with
	"File System not recognized"  it is obviously looking for
	FAT or NTFS

	regards
