Hello,

   My trials & tribulations continue. I have managed to boot SYS_INST
and then load inst-11.fs via NFS from my Sun 3/80. I'm trying to
install NetBSD-1.1.

   And then the fun begins.

   I have gotten as far as about to load the 1st tar file, to as short
as hitting ENTER to select SH as the shell, when the miniroot takes
an illegal instruction. Each time, the process taking the hit appears
to be a wait().

   I don't have a console. I'm hoping someone else has seen this and
may know of a work-around. Also, I don't know where the SCSI bus
reset is coming from(below). I've tried installing onto a pair of DEC RZ56E
drives and a Seagate ST3600N, but to no avail.

   An /etc/dmesg from HPUX of the machine follows:
