You can probably use the 1.5.3 mopboot image. It worked for 1.6.

Subject: boot.mop?=20



so, i went to netboot 1.6.1 on my 4000/600 to see if the uda driver=20
is stable with emulex qbus-scsi cards (it has the well known tendency to =

crash in anything newer than 1.4.1, and nobody has been able to figure =
it=20
out), and noticed that the boot that is in the installation/netboot dir=20
on the ftp server is not a mop file. i tried netbooting with it just to
see if it works anyway, and as i anticipated, mopd did not know what to=20
do with it. check out mopa.out.. needs to be a.out.. try objcopy to=20
convert it from elf to aout, that didnt work either, it complained about =

the input format being unrecognized... so, a question.. how does one get =

a mop-loadable boot for use in netbooting 1.6.1 (or some other very=20
recent version, for the purposes of seeing if the uda driver works =
again)=20
on a vax?=20
