Hi Again Group:
I fiddled around and got the miniroot to load, by doing a B/3 MUA0 and
then specifying "boot netbsd.gz -a" at the ">" prompt.
I don't know what the "-a" does, this isn't documented...
In any case, I get to sysinst, and the disklabelling portion bails out
with a
/: write failed, file system is full
Floating point exception
#
message. I went to /sbin using the command line and tried a manual
disklabel but have insufficient information to really figure out what's
happening.
There is no disk label on the drive. disklabel -r ra0 says "no disk
label", and I can't create one interactively either.
System rundown: uVax II, 13 MB RAM, QD32 with two drives, each ~320 MB.
This system worked nicely under NetBSD 1.2c, no hardware changes recently.
I am booting 1.4 from a TK50.
Same behaviour is observed if I try to install onto ra1.
Any thoughts/experiences appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Kevin
