Chuck,


Yes, I'm using the console port. I did get the port right, even if I 
couldn't get the right image for downloading.....

: )


The last attempt I tried last night was to attempt to boot using an older 
version of NetBSD - 1.4. Still no go.....

... on any of the machines....

Q: After boot.mop downloads and starts to execute - is anything else 
requested via MOP? Maybe I don't have another component that it needs to 
grab via MOP before attempting to switch to TCP/IP for remaining ops.

Just a thought. It's obvious I have a few books I need to put on order 
today.....

Thanks for the help Chuck! What a learning process....
