The dd was successful from what I can tell, but I just cannot boot. My partition
table looks like this: (1.2GB drive)

partition	start	(c/t/s)		nblks	(c/t/s)		type
a (root)	0	(0/0/0)		42000	(40/0/0)	4.2BSD
b (swap)	43050	(41/0/0)	152250	(145/0/0)	swap
c (disk)	0	(0/0/0)		2025450	(1929/0/0)	unknown

Here's what comes out of dd when I put the miniroot into the swap:

ssh: dd if=/mnt/miniroot of=/dev/rsd2b bs=8k
1024+0 records in
1024+0 records out
8388608 bytes transferred in 56 seconds (149796 bytes/sec)
ssh:

Here's what happens when I boot from rsd2b

>b sd(0,10,1) -s
sd: error 70 0 6 0 0 0 0 1 30 0 FFFFFFFF
sd: error 70 0 2 0 0 0 0 1 9 0 FFFFFFFF
sd: error 70 0 2 0 0 0 0 1 9 0 FFFFFFFF
sd: error 70 0 2 0 0 0 0 1 9 0 FFFFFFFF
sd: error 70 0 2 0 0 0 0 1 9 0 FFFFFFFF
sd: 5 retries

This just continues.

I'm just about fed up with this. Does anyone know what the problem is?
