so, i went to netboot 1.6.1 on my 4000/600 to see if the uda driver 
is stable with emulex qbus-scsi cards (it has the well known tendency to 
crash in anything newer than 1.4.1, and nobody has been able to figure it 
out), and noticed that the boot that is in the installation/netboot dir 
on the ftp server is not a mop file. i tried netbooting with it just to
see if it works anyway, and as i anticipated, mopd did not know what to 
do with it. check out mopa.out.. needs to be a.out.. try objcopy to 
convert it from elf to aout, that didnt work either, it complained about 
the input format being unrecognized... so, a question.. how does one get 
a mop-loadable boot for use in netbooting 1.6.1 (or some other very 
recent version, for the purposes of seeing if the uda driver works again) 
on a vax?
