I am trying to load the miniroot on an Apollo 425t. The boot server I am
using is a Sun 3/80 running Netbsd 1.3. The Apollo comes up into HPUX mode
and gives the boot option of "SYS_INST" as 1Z. When I type 1Z in and hit
enter the Apollo's screen goes blank and stays that way indefinatly. I
noticed that in the install instructions it says to un-gzip the SYS_INST
file however in the 1.4 distribution this file does not apear to be gziped.
The SYS_INST file has been put in the /usr/mdec/rbootd directory on the boot
server.
Any ideas why there is no responce from the system?
TIA,
Rick C.
