I have a nice semi-new DEC Celebris with a P100 and 16MB. For disk
it has a 800MB IDE Maxtor. I can install NetBSD just fine. However,
I can't boot from hard disk.
I get
Read error
I can boot via floppy. I've tried this using the entire disk and have
a real DOS partition table and a NetBSD partition. The same thing happens.
I boot view floppy and boot the hard disk and that works fine.
Ideas?
