Being new to NetBSD (but quite used to netbooting stuff in general), I
just tried to install a VS4000/90A. The machine does have two HDDs,
2GB and 4GB. However, I just fail at booting it. I tried different
"boot" files from the netboot subdirectories, but all of them fail to
load (well, I think they properly load, but crash afterwards) with:

>>> b

 .
-EZA0
%VMB-F-SCBINT2, PC =3D 00000020, PSL =3D 00006611.
?06 HLT INST
  PC=3D 0000172A PSL=3D 041F0000

Any hints for me?

MfG, JBG
