Hi folks,
  I've got a SparcStation 1 here that I'm trying to get 1.3 installed on
with no luck.  I first tried the netboot thing and get as far as the
server replying with the root file system where the boot loader says
it doesn't know what le(0,0,0) is and dies.  So, I gave up on that and
installed a copy of 4.1.1 on the disk so I could partition and get 
enough of a net up to copy the miniroot to the swap partition.  That's
fine and dandy but when I boot the miniroot, the kernel seems to hang
after telling me where the root file system is.  Can anyone tell me
what I'm doing wrong and/or how to get to the point of actually installing
NetBSD?  Thanks in advance

Nate

p.s.  NetBSD seems to be reading really wrong physical information from
the drive...
