Subject: Installing NetBSD on a 735/125

Hello,

i'm trying to install the hp700 port on my 735/125. I downloaded SYSNBOOT,
and configured rboot. After booting the kernel, netbsd is asking me for a
"root device" and i could respond with raid0, raid 1 and so on.. When i
choos raid0, the machine reboots. Some ideas what to do? Have i make at
first a netbsd partition with the hp700 files on the installed harddisk?

Another side effect i detected was, my HP does not ask the rbootd which
files to boot are available. And it tries to boot w/o specifing a boot
file. w/o a specified filename, my rebootd returns statuscode 16 (file
does not exist). I patched now my rmpproto.c to use the filename specified
in the rbootd.conf if no filename was specified by the client and it
works. (was not easy to figure out what happend *grrrr)  My rbootd runs on
a FreeBSD system.

Greetings, Oliver
