Hi sparc People!

The latest in my quest to get netbsd onto my sun box is
that I have come closer to doing the job by booting off
the cdrom. But unfortunately I've struck a new problem.
Can anyone help me with this please?

Here is what
happens when I do a boot from cdrom:  (somewhat abbreviated)

> b sd(0,6,2)
>> NetBSD/sparc secondary boot, Rev 1.9
>> (root@dora.....etc
Booting Netbsd
open netbsd: no such file or directory
:trying netbsd.gz...
Booting netbsd.gz
Memory error during DMA transfer.
DMA control register = 80000302, DMA address = 3f3004


Am I on the correct partition? Any other ideas?

Thanks,
Paul.
