Subject: SLC netboot 1.5_ALPHA2 boot failed

Hi
 I am getting the following error when netbooting a SLC. From the archive,
it looks like the problem is due to the 4MB simms. I do not have the option
to put 16MB simms on this machine to get it to boot. A couple of messages
hint that maybe the boot from the boot-142.fs image might work.
Unfortunately, extracting the boot-142.fs, copying the boot only yielded
that "13c00 The file just loaded is intended for a different CPU type".
The boot.net file is dated Aug 29 15:04, 62000bytes boot.net
