hi,

i´m still trying to install NetBSD 1.5.2 on my VaxStation 3100 M38 (24 Mb
ram).
my server is a i386 with NetBSD 1.5.2.
this is what happens while booting the vax:

>>> boot


-ESA0
>> NetBSD/vax boot [Aug 19 2001 05:57:49] <<
>> Press any key to abort autoboot 0

is my ram bad ?
just before i set up the filesystem, i once booted the vax, it paniced the
same way, i thought it was the missing init.
i tried an other kernel (netbsd.ram) but the output stays the same.

when i power up (this is an example with only 12Mb ram), the vax shows:

KA42-B  V1.5

F...E...D...C...B...A...9...8...7...6...5...4_..3_..2_..1...


 ?  C  0080  0000.4001
 ?  7  80A0  0000.4001
 ?  6  80A1  0000.4001

what do those last three messages mean?

thanks,

lothar
