After seeing some recent success in booting a MicroVAX 3100-80 using the
20000517 snapshot, I powered mine up to give it a try.

I tried netbooting from a Redhat 6.2 Linux host without success, but noted that
there could be problems with NFS.

I then tried netbooting from a NetBSD/i386 box with the same error.

Here's what appears on the vax console:

>>> b/100 esa0

Bootfile: mopboot

-ESA0

>> NetBSD/vax boot [May 23 2000 16:14:54] <<
>> Press any key to abort autoboot
> boot netbsd.vax
Trying BOOTP

boot: client name: stan
root addr=192.168.0.10 path=/usr/export/vaxclient/root
@@@@@@@@@boot failed: Device not configured

I turned on debugging on the nfs server and the root device is getting nfs
mounted ok.

Any suggestions on what's wrong here?

Thanks,
Jason.
