Hi,
I have managed to get the miniroot on to my UVAX II/GPX following the install instructions; But I need a bit of help with last bit of section 3
where it says about newfs a slightly fuller description would help,
Enter pathname of shell or RETURN for sh:
Just type return. Now you will be in a normal single-user
shell, and it's just to newfs your partitions, and start
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
installation.
A few things that you must remember to do from miniroot:
disklabel -B <diskname> to install boot blocks.
MAKEDEV devices in the newly created root filesystem.
Copy gennetbsd and boot from miniroot filesystem
to the newly created root filesystem.
Many Thanks in advance,
Dave.
