Hi,

In the next couple of weeks I'll be getting a SS1+ and I'm going to
install NetBSD/sparc on it.  I'm wondering a couple of things;
should I install from the binaries in the NetBSD-current dir on
ftp.netbsd.org (I just ftp'ed the snapshot binary file) or from
the 1.0 binaries? 

Also, the X11R6 distrib with NetBSD-current is corrupted - I can't
gzip -d the tar.gz file... has anyone else seen this?  Is there anywhere
other than ftp.netbsd.org that I might try to get a working one?

Thanks!

Ben (who is excited at the prospect of *finally* getting a sparc of his
own to play with ;-)
