Several NVAX machines are not yet capable to boot from hard disk. But maybe my
port for those newer machines supports your machine out of the box, maybe i
have to add som things to the kernel sources. You could try to netboot 1.6 on
this machine, and send me the output of dmesg. Besides this, i need the output
of the following prom commands:
E/I 3e
E/P 20040004
The KA?? machine ID
The name of the machine (MicroVAX 4000/100?)
So i can check the sources and maybe you get a working kernel the next days, if
1.6 doesn't work currently.
But you have to netboot it currently, until i hacked the PROM routines for this
(have to find the time to start this).
