hi all,

i upgraded my nfs root vax setup to the kernel from the dec1998 snapshot.
previously i was running the 1.3.2 release. this had two effects, one good
and one bad.

the good one:

netbsd now correctly recognises my machine as a vaxstation, rather than
calling it a microvax. i can also access my disk, and write partitions to
it using disklabel without errors.

the bad one:

it only seems to find the first disk. they are on 2 seperate scsi
controllers. the 1.3.2 kernel found both disks fine. please find two files
attached to this email which show the boot stuff from the console to
illustrate this.

another problem:

this one is probably just me being thick, so please accept my apologies in
advance if this is the case. with the dec98 snapshot kernel i have used
disklabel to partition my rz23 disk. "disklabel sd0" correctly shows my
partitions - the disk being split roughly into thirds for / /home and
swap. the 'c' partition is the entire disk. /usr will be on the other disk
when it is recognised again, probably on nfs until then. the a, c and d
partitions are shown as "unused" in disklabel output. the b partition is
shown as "swap".

if i try to "newfs /dev/rsd0a" or "swapon /dev/rsd0b" i get an error which
says "Device not configured.", and i can't work out what i have not done
to configure the device.

thanks in advance,
paul
