Hi,

	I'm trying to get NetBSD or Linux running on a Sparc 2 with
32M (Boot first over net, then I have a 1.7G to install it on).  When I
try to load the kernel, it does the TFTP, but at the end (??) it keeps
sending out packets (Seen via TCPDUMP) like :

			0.0.0.0.tftp : 4 ACK

	for about 8 minutes, then just goes "receive failed" and dies. I
get the same thing from the Linux kernel, but atleast it boots and locks
during the mounting of the root FS.

	Help?  Its NetBSD-1.1

				Tuc
