     I just did that today. I was installing 1.5 from scratch and 
sysinst kept telling me that the necessary files weren't in the 
specified nfs directory. I used nedbsd.sys from 1.42 -current with 
boot.mop from 1.5 and the install went fine (except that I had to 
substitute the 1.42 version of xserver.tgz, as the empty file in 1.5 
killed the install). the machine seems to work and I don't get that 
boot-time error message that you spoke of.


     Best regards,
