Goood timing Warner-san,
Naoki Fukaumi make the snapshot on this morning.and now I put on 
  ftp://ftp.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD/arch/hpcmips/snapshot/20000627-1.5/

1.5_ALPHA issue:
  http://mail-index.netbsd.org/current-users/2000/07/02/0005.html
    sysctl -w net.inet.icmp.errratelimit=0 

NetBSD/hpcmips issue:
this version include dynamic-link version /bin,/sbin tarballes.
misc/bin-sbin-static-base.tgz is static-link /bin,/sbin tarballs.

1. copy these files On your 64M CF
-rw-rw-r--  1 jun  netbsd   6773415 Jun 30 18:36 netbsd    <==sysinst incl.
-rwxrwxr-x  1 jun  netbsd    121856 Jun 30 18:39 pbsdboot.exe

-rw-rw-r--  1 jun  netbsd   1005921 Jun 30 17:36 kern.tgz

2.exec pbsdboot.exe from CE environment.
   CF slot:     pbsdboot and kernel and tarz
   PCMCIA slot: SlimSCSI card with Harddisk

3. if sysinst-kernel recognize slimscsi and scsi disks.
   you can extract tarz files to the scsi hard disk.

4. after install.
   on CF,
      rename netbsd to sysinst-kernel
      extract normal kernel from kern.tgz to "netbsd"
   exec pbsdboot and normal kernel,and kernel will find slimscsi
   cards.
