Hello everyone,

    It's a bunch of firsts for me.  New to Sparc's and new to NetBSD.
Actually, got in to NetBSD because OpenBSD doesn't yet support the Ultra
Sparc.  Anyway, so I got this Ultra Sparc and I can't do anything with
it yet.  It was donated to a Catholic School by Lockheed Martin, and in
turn, they gave it to me.  LH wiped the HDD before giving it away (can't
blame them) so there's no OS.

    I've followed the instructions in install.html, but first off, I
didn't see any directory under ../sparc64/binary/installation called
./floppy so I thought that perhaps ./misc would be enough.  Perhaps
something had changed.  Anyway, I'd formated (without /s) a floppy in my
Win 98 box to copy these things on to.  Did the copy of every file in
that directory to a:, and then through the disk in the Ultra Sparc.
(Just wanted to see if I could get something to boot.)

    Set the security to none, like it said, and then did boot floppy.
This is what I get:

Boot device: /sbus/SUNW,fdtwo File and args:
Bad magic number in disk label
Can't open disk label package

Can't open boot device

What gives?  Second, I've given it eject-floppy six ways from seven and
the floppy just don't come out of the drive.  What's the chant I've got
to sing?  Also, did run diag's on the scsi bus and the floppy.
Everything did check out.  Please help me, and sorry for the ignorance.
