hello,
I am still trying to instal netbsd 1.5.2 (someone gave me the cd)
to vaxstation3100/38.I made bootfs flopies on a pc ,ok,
the diskette boots the vax ok, finds everything ok,all the hard drives,the
cdrom
but when I go into sysinst it does not find an external rz55 on scsi1.
I mean that it finds it at boot time, but does not give me the choice to
install
netbsd on it, I have the choice only of the internal drives, not the
external one.
The drive is well found at console prompt, it works ok (mount/copy etc ) on
vms,
so it has no hardware problem. I tried to put it after,or before the cdrom
in the scsi chain
,no change,the cdrom has scsi id=1,the hd rz55 has 5.
Can someone indicate me what is happening, and what to do ?
(I think I could open the vs and the box od the rz55 ,remove the internal
drives and connect the rz55 ,but it is a long job ,and I am going to do it
only if nothing
else is feasable.The final goal is to put the rz55 to another vs3100/38
that has no floppy,so cannot be booted -I do not have any linux box etc...
to netboot.
Thanks very much
