I did
 * grab .../INDY/cdimage/NetBSD-1.5.2-sgimips.bootable.gz
 * unzipped it
 * wrote to CD-R: cdrecord dev=/dev/cd1d -v NetBSD-1.5.2-sgimips.bootable
 * fix my Indy's PROM variables:
     setenv systempartition scsi(0)disk(6)rdisk(0)partition(8)
     setenv osloadpartition scsi(0)disk(6)rdisk(0)partition(0)
     setenv osloadfilename netbsd.ram
     setenv OSLoader boot
 * Run "dir":
	>> ls
	scsi(0)disk(6)rdisk(0)partition(8)/:
	boot
   => works!
 * Try booting:
	>> boot
	sc0,6,0: cmd=0x3 disconnected on non-word boundary (addr=a8748d82, 0x6 left).  Resetting SCSI bus
	dks0d6s8: error 2 status 0 on disk status check
	sc0,6,0: cmd=0x3 disconnected on non-word boundary (addr=a8748d82, 0x6 left).  Resetting SCSI bus
	dks0d6s8: error 2 status 0 on disk status check
	
	Cannot load scsi(0)disk(6)rdisk(0)partition(8)/boot.
	Illegal f_magic number 0x1, expected MIPSELMAGIC or MIPSEBMAGIC.
	Unable to load scsi(0)disk(6)rdisk(0)partition(8)/boot: execute format error
	>>

   :-(


There's some CD light blinking and head moving right after the
"boot" command and before the errors. The CD-ROM is a HP SureStore 6020,
and it works fine on my i386 machine, the bus is terminated properly.
