Notice the complete lack of any boot-time location of sd0. No wonder
it can't find sd0a (or sd0b). There isn't even any scsi interface
found.
What sort of scsi interface does the machine have? NetBSD/sun3 doesn't
(yet) support the sc controller; I've been sort of working on that, but
it's going slowly (largely because my sun3 source tree doesn't build at
present).
