Ok, I realize its probably not much fun to watch someone walk through this
in real time but hey the FAQ ain't helpin here. 

Ok so to briefly recap:
	MicroVAX II trying to install NetBSD 1.3.2
	
1) I've got diskless working, can boot diskless and run just
   fine using the 1.3 release.

2) I'm attempting to "go local" and boot from an MSCP controller on the
QBus that has an ESDI disk attached to it (Maxtor XT-8760E for the curious)

Here is my progress to date:

- Managed to create a disk label for the disk "by hand" and used the
disklabel program to write it on to the disk.

- Ran newfs on three of the partitions (a = /, g = /usr, and h = /extra)

- I've had a variety of problems trying to write a boot block to the disk.
	When I run 'disklabel -B' it succeeds.
	When I run 'disklabel -B -b boot' it fails with "not enough space"

  I can boot from disk using :
	>>>b/3 dua0
	> netbsd ... <
	: ra(0,0,0)netbsd

But the boot sequence won't complete. It bails out before adding swap.

VI won't run and neither will some other programs. 

Any pointers on how to get out of this mess?
