Hi again,
 
    Thanks for all the responses I got... It turns out my exports 
file on the server was screwed up.  Now I have another problem.  The 
sparc gets the the netbsd kernel from the server and loads it up and 
probes the devices etc..but it gets to a certain part and dies.  Here 
are the relevant parts of the output:

    nfs-boot: using network interface 'le0'
    nfs-boot: client-addr = 0xa81ac148
    nfs-boot: server-addr = 0xa81ac113
    nfs-boot: hostname = athena
    root on mars:/usr/export/root/athena
    WARNING: clock gained 66 days -- CHECK & RESET THE DATE!
    swap on mars:/usr/export/swap/athena
    panic: rminit swap
    syncing disks...done
    frame pointer is at 0xf80f9c30
    call traceback:
    pc = f80d7384 args( *bunch of numbers deleted*  )
    .
    . *more numbers*
    .
    pc = ffe94814 args( *bunch more numbers  deleted* ) 
    rebooting
    
 I have no idea what is happening at this point.  The command I used 
to boot the system was: boot le()netbsd -s
Can somebody please help me? 

Thanks,
C.P.
