Last night I tried installing 1.5.2 and had troubles, so I whipped out my laptop running
1386 NetBSD 1.5.2 and started mopd...

I degziped the kernel into the /tftpboot/mop directory with the file name being
<MACaddress>.SYS

At the 5000/240 I entered:
>> boot 3/mop

I can see the ethernet blinking...

mopd in debug shows the 240 requesting something, but not response from either the monitor
or terminal and the mop requests, on the 240, are persistant.

I run mopchk on the boot file, it says (I'm recalling this)
Native Image RSX
Header Block Count: <don't remember>
Image Size:         00000000
Load Address:       00000000
Transfer Address:   00000000

That image size seems bad.  I have a VTX 2000+ and the image size is not zero and it
works!

What am/was I doing wrong?

Also, upon thinking about it, can I do:

>> boot 3/mop/netbsd.install

and will it request that specific file from the mopd?
