Well, some great news: I successfully netbooted my MicroVAX 3100/30 with
the 1.5_ALPHA snapshot.  I've included the dmesg, for anyone who wants to
look at it.  The netbooting instructions are excellent, but I still have
some questions.

First: when did bootp make it into MOPBOOT.SYS?  Heh, I set up RARP and
bootparamd and then booted my VAX only to find it saying, "Trying
BOOTP..." so I just turned off bootparamd and the RARP entries I'd
made and set up bootpd instead.  Either way worked great.

The second question involves the no_root_squash and the root_squash
options in /etc/exports.  I don't really understand why one wouldn't use
no_root_squash - without it, I couldn't make directories in /home .

And the third question has nothing to do with netbooting.  These are the
lines from dmesg about my tape:

st0 at scsibus0 target 1 lun 0: <, , > SCSI1 1/sequential removable
st0: rogue, drive empty

Short of removing everything I've stacked on top of the case and opening
it, how can I tell what kind of tape drive I've got?  I do have OpenVMS 5
installed on the two hard drives.  (And am still trying to learn it. :/ )

Thanks to all who've helped out with NetBSD and the NetBSD/vax port.  =)
