Hi.
I'm trying to netboot a Series 400 I was given. I'm not quite sure if
it's a 400t or 433t since the serial number seems to suggest the former
while NetBSD claims the latter. Anyway, I've gotten so far as getting
SYS_UBOOT up through rbootd (my server is NetBSD/i386). rarpd is also
running and in debug mode, but doesn't seem to get any traffic, so there
it stops. Serial console output is:

It waits a bit at the Boot: prompt, and then prints the warning and
hangs indefinitely.
Hm. After writing the above, I tried with OpenBSD's SYS_UBOOT, and that
does go further. Seems NetBSD's version is buggy. Consider this a bug
report then. ;)
