Hi !
I'm trying to boot my VaxServer3100 from tape to install
NetBSD-vax1.4.
I dd'ed the miniroot.fs to a TK50 tape on an Ultrix machine
and tried to boot the Vax with
>>> boot MUA500
then there is a lot of tape-action and i get to some kind of
boot-prompt:
>>NetBSD/vax boot [May 7 1999 06:49:43] <<
>> Press any key to abort autoboot 0
>
when i enter
> boot netbsd -a
i get
Command failed: Unknown error: code 32768037
>
Any ideas what i'm doing wrong ?
TIA, Jan.
PS: The tape is an internal TZ30, not a real TK50.
