Hi all,

Would it be possible to run NetBSD/prep on a RS/6000 7024 E20? I tried
booting the NetBSD/prep generic_com0.fs on mine and this is what I get:

---cut---
>> NetBSD/prep BOOT, Revision 1.5

---cut---

Then it just hangs. Does the box still have hope or will I have to do with
AIX (which I was able to install ok, so the box itself is working fine)?

I'd be happy to play the testing engineer if someone has a clue how to fix
this. :)
