Can someone verify if installboot works on the 1.5 branch?  I compiled it
on a 1.5_ALPHA2 sparc (the pmax installboot) and when I try and run it I
get:

% /usr/src/sys/arch/pmax/stand/installboot/installboot -v -i 3899 \
      images/tiny.iso tiny-1.5/usr/mdec.pmax/bootxx_cd9660


disk: images/tiny.iso
bootstrap: tiny-1.5/usr/mdec.pmax/bootxx_cd9660
installboot: read tiny-1.5/usr/mdec.pmax/bootxx_cd9660: Undefined error: 0


but the file does exist:

% ls -l tiny-1.5/usr/mdec.pmax/bootxx_cd9660 
-r--r--r--  1 mcmahill  mtl  6944 Oct  3 00:33 tiny-1.5/usr/mdec.pmax/bootxx_cd9660

the bootxx_cd9660 came from the 1.5_ALPHA2/pmax snapshot.

the 1.5 branch installboot doesn't build on my 1.4.2 pmax and I won't be
able to upgrade that for a bit.  So I'm wondering if installboot is broken
or if there is some non-portable stuff I ran into when I compiled on a
sparc.


Thanks
