Given the recent comment about SCSI working on the VLC (and cache!) I
thought I would boot it up to play with it. I had built -current from
around 4/1/00 (1.4X) so that is what I netbooted. The startup dialog is
shown in appendix 1 below. It has an RZ24 (250MB) installed which is not
_great_ for NetBSD but certainly servicable. So I tried labelling it and
when I went to write the label I got:

Which looks a lot like something is screwed. Not sure what though. So I'm
re-syncing with the build tree and I'll build a new kernel and try it on
this box. While that is going on, does anyone (Matt in particular :-) have
any ideas if I have the current SCSI support and if the cache is actually on?
