:)Thanks, I'd checked that out -- I just wanted to find out whether or not

Hmmm.  Is the ofwboot.xcf on your netboot server corrupt?  Is your tftp
server fragmenting the packets?  Is your load-base set to 600000?

:)I'd also like to take one last stab at the message subject -- is there any
:)way to edit open firmware environment variables from within netbsd?

No idea.  I'd guess not.

Good luck,
