This is my first post.

I am trying to install NetBSD onto a a DEC 3000 M400.  I was unable to
get the Netbsd disk to boot.  Also I was unable to upgrade the
firmware using the "Digital Alpha Systems Firmware update v5.3" CD.

Here is the output of >>show config

Digital Equipment corporation

.

Can someone confirm or deny that NetBSD will work on this machine?
More information will be provided upon request.
