Hi all
I'm a newcomer to both netBSD and the Cobalt Raq2. I've loaded netBSD
1.6.1 using the recovery disk method.
Everything apeared to go well but then I re-booted the consol showed
'decompressing' twice and then halted.
I googled and found that entering 'bfd /boot/netbsd.gz' at the cobalt
prompt does indeed boot the machine.
However, I would like to boot my Raq2 without having to type 'bfd
/boot/netbsd.gz' at the console. Could anybody
give me a hand?
Many thanks
Kevin
PS my Raq only has 16Mb of RAM - could this be an issue?
