Thanks for your answer Michael,

I tried to boot my machine with mopd and nfs. mopd works fine, nfs =
seems to
me also working correctly.
The kernel Image is loaded into the vax, but when the kernel tries to =
start
up, I always get something like:

Trying BOOTP
bootp: no reply
boot: client IP address: 149.206.58.245
boot: client name: myvax
root addr=3D149.206.58.245 path=3D/export/myvax/root
701856+1205116+145624 total=3Dx01f51f8

?06 HLT INST
             PC =3D 8009E836
Loading system software.
(BOOT/R5:100 EZA0)
...

I tried different kernelversions, but alwas the same. Do you (or some =
one
else) have an idea what I did wrong?
The consol output is from boot.mop and netbsd.ram.gz from this =
ftp-site:
