This is good news, so....
In the basement, I found a VS2000 ofcause without floppy or tape, but 
with a disk.... So after reading some of the previous mail in this list 
and VAX FAQ, I open the box and connected a floppy (teac). Yes, it seems 
to be working... Next downloaded the boot and miniroot for rx33, both the 
ones Ragge complied as well as the one (boot as well as netbsd, yes 
netbsd seems to start from this disk) Ari 
provided. Next to a pc, used rawrite, to write the images. Now, >>B/3 dua2 
brings upp NBoot, where I type edlabel which starts nicely. The first 
task here is to select a device, i.e. ra(0,0,0)..... then nothing 
happens (should this take long time???). The same thing happens if I use 
copy, and select ra(2,0) or is it ra(0,2), I don't remember, as the 
device to read from.

The disk DUA0 seems to be ok, its been formated without problem. 

Any clue where I go wrong....
Now it striked me, I'm not using a console.. is this the problem, I 
thought it not necessary when using edlabel and copy?????.
