Re: Data Access Exception when trying to Boot installed NetBSD of hard drive

[Adrian Christiansen <adrian.christiansen%gmail.com@localhost>]

Tested rewriting the bootloader, sadly it made no difference.

sparky# installboot -v /dev/rsd0a /usr/mdec/bootxx /boot
File system:         /dev/rsd0a
File system type:    ffs (blocksize 8192, needswap 0)
Primary bootstrap:   /usr/mdec/bootxx
Secondary bootstrap: /boot
Bootstrap start sector: 1
Bootstrap byte count:   7196
Bootstrap block table:  118 entries of 8192 bytes available, 9 used:
2896 2912 2928 2944 2960 2976 2992 3008 2866
Writing bootstrap

Seemed to exit OK. Same Data Access Exception error on boot.
