Dear NetBSD VAX porters!
Could you please help me with that problem? Do you know what 4D DEVOFFLIN=
E
means? Do I have to "enable" something first? Is my hardware broken?
Thanks.


I'd like to boot NetBSD on a VAXstation 3100 with RX23 floppy. I've
downloaded the file boot.fs.gz from
ftp://ftp.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD/NetBSD-1.4.1/vax/installation/bootfs/
and, on a Linux system, have put it to a 1.44 MB disk by
zcat boot.fs.gz > /dev/fd0

Now when I type B DUA2 in the VAX firmware prompt the floppy LED goes
on, but what I get is 4D DEVOFFLINE, DUA2
SHOW DEV does show DUA2.
What am I doing wrong?
