Subject: 1.3a on an A7000+

I am attempting to install RiscBSD 1.3alpha (from the Causality CD) on an
A7000+, but I'm not having much success.

I've partitioned my hard drive, and run bb_riscbsd to initialise the
RiscBSD partition. However, I am unsure which kernel to use to boot.
I've tried the default RPCINST kernel with no success, and a couple of
A7INST kernels from the distribution on the 'net, but none of these seem
to work at all. Either I get an address exception from RISC OS, or
some text appears before the screen clears and the machine appears to
hang.

I suppose what I'm wanting to know is whether anyone else has got 1.3a
up and running on an A7000+, and how exactly they managed it?

Regards,

David
