Greg, I think it's just OK for you to choose one of two ways for MAXINE
case;
	1. network install with serial console
	2. raw write of prepared 32MB image into disk

It has turned out MAXINE can not handle keyboard input with video
console when tftpbooting.  It's peculiar to MAXINE design.  You have
two options to go farther, and don't have to worry about PROM brahbrah
in your case.  I installed NetBSD/pmax in MAXINE last year with the
latter way, and never concerned myself with tftpboot until last week
(as many others).
