Greetings,
I just finished installing NetBSD 1.5 on an internal scsi drive connected t=
o
an Orange Micro card. Now, I can=B9t boot into it. I have tried different
command combinations and nothing has worked. While installing, it called
the drive sd0. When I used pdisk to see what the partition number is, it
called the drive /dev/scsi1.4 and said the part. Number was 2.
Now, I am telling Open Firmware to boot like this:
setenv boot-device sd:2/netbsd (and different combinations of this
command)
setenv boot-device scsi/sd@0:2
setenv boot-file netbsd
And nothing has worked. I keep getting the message that it can=B9t open that
drive/partition. Can someone help me?
Thanks for your time.
Salaam (Peace),
Vickie
