Hi!
I successfully installed Netbsd 3.0 to my G3-300 with Open Firmware 2.4.
Right now, I'm booting ofwboot.xcf and kernel from the network and
touching the harddrive afterwards.
I installed NetBSD to Partition zero and now I don't know how to use
installboot, I guess.
First I copy one of the ofwboot-files from /usr/mdec to /. But which
one? ofwboot, ofwboot.xcf or ofwboot.elf? Do I install it to /dev/rwd0c
or rwd0a?
The only thing I have to do afterwards is "setenv boot-device
ide0/disk@0:0"?
I'm sorry, but I am a little bit confused...
Thanks in advance,
Michael Fuckner!
