hi there!
I've got a sparcserver 4/470 in the cellar. When I try to boot it with a
disk prepared on a sun sparc 1 (this one is running without problems),
it tries to load the kernel.
Message is like:
> b sd(0,18,0)netbsd
Booting sd(0,18,0)netbsd
NetBSD-1.3 generic
(then the rotating line) / - \ |
then, when it tries to start:
Watchdog reset.
>
(boot prom prompt).
I know it is the machine noted as not working (properly) in the
installation notes. But has anybody any idea on what I could do about
this, or do I have to use SunOS on this machine?
Greetings,
Reinhold Huber
