I need some help with the Gateway3 CDRom. I got it following the advices on
the NetBSD homepage, but unfortunately, I'm unable to find the Mac related
stuffs. There are tons of 0byte files (aliases or such kind, I guess) and
some scripts (on the topmost level of the CDRom). Those scripts, apparently
refer to a booting routine, but on the Mac that CD will not boot (may be
it's meant for Amigas or PCs). Now, how can I get the Mac utilities and try
to install the NetBSD stuff from that CD? Then there are other files,
obviously binaries, because when I open them in an editor (ProTERM), I'm
getting some text, names, and then garbled stuff (similar to what I get when
opening formatted Mac text or db files).

Hmm, it's not what I'd consider an installer CD (at least not for a Mac) . .
.:-\

Thanks in advance for any help
