You should wait on that. You can't netboot NetBSD/VAX on machines that
have Q-bus ethernet controllers like the DELQA. The mop-able boot loader
(mopboot) only supports the lance ethernet devices found in non Q-bus
based machines like the VAXstation 2000, 3100, and apparently some
MicroVAX 3100's.
The Q-bus ethernet controllers are supported in the NetBSD/VAX kernel, so
you can still use the network if you can get NetBSD installed onto your
machine using tapes or floppy disks.
