So I installed Ubuntu on a testing laptop. It blew away my boot loader
without asking with grub. So I setup its /boot/grub/menu.lst to boot
NetBSD and that worked fine.
But today the Linux ext3fs file system died taking away my grub.
I already have pxeboot on my network and that boots.
What do I type in to boot my first partition on my ide disk?
boot(8) manual page doesn't have an example for me.
I tried:
boot hd0a:netbsd
But it fails with:
pxe_netif_probe: PXENV_UDP_OPEN failed: 0x60
net_open: netif_open() failed
open hd0a:netbsd: Device not configured
boot: Device not configured
