Right, it doesn't count. But it works, just press ENTER :-) Had it
netbooting, and now it boots from a RD54 without any problems. If you use
the booter with a QVSS console (VAXstation II), just pull out this stupid
framebuffer and use the serial console. The ROM console input seems to be
a bit broken in the booter, it isn't very interested in keystrokes :-)
If you still have any problems, try the kernel/booter from
http://www.camaronet.de/download, it's named KA670 because of the added
support for this, but it should work on all machines.
so long.. Michael
