Which raises a question - how many disks can I support without a kernel
rebuild? I currently am using SunOS with root on disk 10 (scsi id 5)
for reasons you don't want to know about. Can I boot (perhaps with
-a) without recompiling. For SunOS I had to rebuild to support
the extra disks (I think it only does 2 by default) and also made
disk 10 the root disk. I have been lurking on this mailing list
for some time and am considering taking the NetBSD plunge for my
Sun 3/50.
