Hello Anyone,

I'm trying to get my uVax to boot from DUA0 and I'm running into annoying
errors. This is the deal,

	If I type 'disklabel -w -B /dev/ra0 maxtor'
	it works and my disk table is written and I can mount
	the partitions and fill them with data whilst I'm
	NFS booted.

	However, if I try to boot from the 'chevron' I get
	
>>> b dua0

  2..1..0..


howto 0x0, bdev 0x11, booting...Boot failed, saerrno 2

?06 HLT INST
    PC = 00100201

Seems kind of poor, so I try looking around for a boot program and of
course find that in netboot there is one, called 'boot' and I try
installing that with disklabel, and then I get:
    chuckvax# disklabel -B -b boot /dev/ra0
    disklabel: Bootstrap doesn't leave room for disk label

Not very useful. So the default boot does leave enough size but the new
boot doesn't? I'm confused.
