Hi All:

This is probably a FAQ question, but the info in there is old!

I'm installing 1.2G onto my Microvax II. When I boot ":ra(0,1)netbsd" and
get prompted for root device, I enter "ra0*". I then get prompted for dump
device, default ra0b. I responded "none" as I don't want to overwrite the
miniroot.

I'm then asked the filesystem type, accept the default "generic", and then
the process bombs out with "no file system on ra0, error = 79".

What's wrong?

Kevin
