The ftpd in the base installation worked with no problem. 
The necessary files were moved in seconds of Sparc time  
and a few minutes of my time.

Thanks to everyone who has helped with the EPROM and with 
NetBSD.  The result is visible at http://carnot.yi.org/ .

A concluding question.  Are there instructions for running without a 
monitor?  Seems advisable to remove the video card as well as the monitor.  
What software switches should be changed when the card is removed?

Thanks,            ... Peter E.
