 I checked, and the SIMM in U0310 was a 16 MB one.
 
 I have now changed all four SIMMs to 16 MB ones from another IPX, and
 I'm still getting the same error:
 
    ok boot disk netbsd
    Can't open input device.

 And as before, a custom kernel built from 6.1.4 sources with a few
 file systems and drivers omitted does boot.
