System: NetBSD trinh 1.4M NetBSD 1.4M (TRINH) #0: Mon Nov 8 15:47:32 PST 1999 toor@trinh:/usr/src/sys/arch/sparc/compile/TRINH sparc


>Description:
	From INSTALL.txt:

	Fetch the bootable bootfs image from
           .../NetBSD-1.4.1/vax/installation/bootfs/boot.fs.gz
     	Gunzip boot.fs.gz and write it on the beginning of the tape.
	 Under NetBSD this is done via:
           gunzip boot.fs.gz
           mt -f /dev/nrmt0 rewind
           dd if=boot.fs of=/dev/nrmt0
           mt -f /dev/nrmt0 rewoffl

	NetBSD's tape device is /dev/nrst0, NOT /dev/nrmt0.

>How-To-Repeat:

	# ./MAKEDEV rmt0
	rmt0: unknown device
	# ./MAKEDEV st0
	# 

>Fix:
	vi INSTALL.txt
