floppy3 looks good!! 

it seems to initialize the L2 cache properly, it finds parallel port,
floppy, ethernet (with the right hardware adress), and that's all. i have
the other machine connected to the serial1-port of the mips, maybe thats
the problem .. if it is, how do i use serial0, because if i change the
cable to serial0 nothing happens at all.

well, i'm very happy seeing this machine getting forward in booting
netbsd. here are the last bootmessages:
