Hi folks...

There is a new binary snapshot available at:

	ftp://ftp.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD/arch/hp300/snapshot/970522/

Sorry, I haven't had the time/energy to make a miniroot set for -current
yet.  This one is meant for installation over existing systems.  It can
be used to set up a diskless system, which could then set up disks, etc.
and be reinstalled there.

This snapshot includes kernel and boot block support for the APCI console
on the 425e.  If you have one of these systems, _please_ try it out, and
report any problems you might have.  (Thanks to Mike Smith for doing
the initial code!)  The Domain keyboard is supported in the boot block,
but is not yet supported in the kernel; that will be coming soon, as soon
as I've finished adding support for multiple cooked keyboards, etc.

If you encounter any problems with the snapshot, please let me know.
Success stories also welcome :-)

Ciao.
