What do you mean "doesn't boot?"

As in, the kernels don't work, or the boot blocks don't work.


I and another staff person here at CMU had ... a horrible time trying
to get NetBSD/pmax up on his 5000/1<something-xx> a few months ago,
and indeed we never succeeded.  The boot blocks Were Very Unhappy,
and wouldn't load the kernel.  The same exact disk image would boot
on a 5000/200...

If it's the boot blocks that don't work, it's probably the same thing.
If it's the kernel, well, maybe we ought to try it here, again.  8-)
