Hello,

I'm trying to install NetBSD 1.6 on my Sparc Station 2
using a net install (my goal is to test the upgrade
procedure of 1.6.1 before upgrading my live server
runing on an SS5).

The server for this installation is an Ultra5 under
Solaris 8 using the same binary and configuration I
used to install the SS5.

But, when I boot the machine, I got :

ok boot le1 netbsd-GENERIC

SPARCstation 2, No Keyboard
ROM Rev. 2.6, 64 MB memory installed, Serial #4403387.
Ethernet address 8:0:20:13:6:44, Host ID: 554330bb.


Rebooting with command: le1 netbsd-GENERIC
Boot device: /sbus/lebuffer@1,40000/le@1,60000   File
and args: netbsd-GENERIC
13200
>> NetBSD/sparc Secondary Boot, Revision 1.9
>> (toor@proxima, Fri Jan  9 04:50:38 CST 1970)
Booting netbsd-GENERIC
Using BOOTPARAMS protocol: ip address:

netmask: 255.255.255.0
root addr=0.0.0.0 path=/
Data Access Exception
Type  help  for more information
ok

Someone knows where I'm wrong ?

Another question : it exists some tools for commercial
OSes to build a bootable backup to restore a system
(Ignite for HP-UX, Standalone backup for VMS, ...). Is
it such tool for Netbsd ?
