If you use the same mopd, Something Is Wrong.

However, I am happy to report that I have managed to get something
working.  I downloaded boot.mop via the console serial line (initially,
by processing it into many "d/l/p" commands; then I wrote a small
"grappling hook" that allows me to download at almost full serial line
rate, which is about four times as fast).  Explicitly telling it to
boot le()netbsd managed to bring up the diskless kernel.

Now, since I have hard evidence that the Ethernet can indeed receive
packets, I really want to know what's wrong with MOP-booting! :-/

Well, with luck it soon won't matter.  The machine does have a disk
that I should be able to set it up to boot from.
