helper images "DCburn" and "DCserv" for NetBSD/dreamcast



Hi,

NetBSD 5.1 has been announced, but I guess there are still
two annoying procedures for ordinary users to try NetBSD/dreamcast:

 - Create a bootable CD-R with NetBSD/dreamcast kernel
 - Setup NFS/DHCP server for diskless dreamcast client

To make these procedures easier, I've created two pre-built
NetBSD/i386 disk images, "DCburn" and "DCserv":
 http://ftp.NetBSD.org/pub/NetBSD/arch/dreamcast/dcburn/
 http://ftp.NetBSD.org/pub/NetBSD/arch/dreamcast/dcserv/

"DCburn" image provides easy setup to burn
bootable CD-R for NetBSD/dreamcast.

"DCserv" image provides easy setup for NetBSD/dreamcast
which requires "root file system on NFS" environment to boot.

All things you need to use these images are
to write each image to a USB flash memory,
put it on your x86 PC bootable from USB,
and type a few commands on NetBSD prompt.

See README files for details:
 http://ftp.NetBSD.org/pub/NetBSD/arch/dreamcast/dcburn/README

Enjoy,
