Subject: Floppy boot image testers wanted!

We have a new boot.fs.gz image available at:
ftp://ftp.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD/arch/vax/snapshot/1.4.1-pre2/installation/bootfs/
This has been verified to work on tk50 and RX23 written on a vax.
We're looking for people with access to both a vax and a PC who
can test out using RAWRITE and PUTR to generate RX23 and RX33
floppies, and then test boot them on their vax. (remember to gunzip!)
boot.fs replaces the miniroot - it contains a kernel with built in
ramdisk and sysinst.
Once we have some feedback we'll get the install notes updated
and online and 1.4.1 will be done...
