Hi there,

I've a HP/Apollo 400t (Mentor) machine which currently runs Domain/OS sr10.4.

Now, I want to upgrade it to NetBSD 1.x.

Here my questions:

1. In the manpage is written, that the machine must be in HP-mode.
Installing a HP-keyboard is no problem, but what about the boot-prom ?
Must I change it or can I set the mode from the boot level in service mode; if
that's possible, how can I do that ??
Are there any further required changes from Apollo to HP mode ?

2. Which Version of NetBSD is recommended ?? I saw there is a version 1.1 and a
1.2 BETA version.

3. Any further suggestion or well-known problems ??

Thanx to all .... Alex
