Just for the record, I have booted my VS2000 with NetBSD from my linux 
box up till the "Unable to mount root device" stage... i.e. I just booted 
the kernel to see if it would work.

I am also working on a enhanced bootloader for VAXlinux that should also 
work with NetBSD, but exams are coming up so don't hold your breath :)

Cheers
Karl
