OK experts, here's my question of the day. I'm booting a uVax II from
TK50, using reggae's "file1" (boot, edlabel, and copy) and "file2"
(the miniroot). All goes as advertised, UNTIL I try to use disklabel to
make my RA81 bootable, viz:
# disklabel -B /dev/ra0a
disklabel: cannot find /usr/mdec/aboot <<-- eh? This file ain't in the
# miniroot image !
# disklabel -B -b /boot /dev/ra0a
disklabel: bootstrap doesn't leave room for disk label
OK, I'm stuck at this point. Do I need to specify a different
boot image file? Am I using disklabel incorrectly? Am I specifying the
wrong physical device? Did I mis-label the RA81, and if so, how do I
tell?
