I have now read the TFTP rfc and I think I know what is happening.

After receiving 895 kbytes, my pmax sends the error code 3, which means
"Disk full or allocation exceeded." So it looks like I need to shrink
nfsnetbsd.ecoff by 100 kbytes... Is this possible? If so, does anyone
like to compile such a kernel for me? (for a Decstation 5000/20)
