That is what I was thinking.  But, since it was sent out as a sun3 port
to run on a 3/60 I was becoming confused.

OK, I was able to use the 1.3.2 boot suite and use that for partitioning,
and that seemed to work.

I tried the newest boot stuff and it barfed.  It could not find the
miniroot on the tape.  I then went back to the 1.3.2 boot and it
worked fine.  I was using the tapeboot from the previous snapshot.
Also, when I got it up in the miniroot, it could not find the tape files,
yet the 1.3.2 found them correctly.  I wound up ftping the files across
to do the install and that worked fine.

Alas, when it came up, it was locked into an init circle that constantly
caused the shell to abort and restart.  Any idea what may be causing
that.  The machine is a 3/260 with 32M ram and the combo internal/external
si controller, with a 250mb scsi drive, running a vt100 terminal.
