Re: issues with netbsd-8 and simh-vax



Hi.

I would guess it's the same problem I encountered.
The kernel is too big and overwrites the bootloader.
Please see the thread "No go booting netbsd-8 on VLC"
here http://mail-index.netbsd.org/port-vax/2017/07/thread1.html

 hi folks.
 
 
 i can't boot -8 in simh using the
 microvax3900 emulation.  at
 the end of kernel loading, it gets into
 a stray interrupt loop:
 
 >> NetBSD/vax boot [1.12 (Thu
 Mar  8 03:36:42 UTC 2018)] <<
 >> Press any key to abort
 autoboot 4
 getdisklabel: no disk label
 nfs_open: must mount first.
 open netbsd.vax: No such file or
 directory
 > boot netbsd
 getdisklabel: no disk label
 nfs_open: must mount first.

 interrupt: vector 0x18, ipl 31
 stray interrupt: vector 0x18, ipl 31
 stray interrupt: vector 0x18, ipl 31
 [ ... forever ... ]
 
 this same setup works with
 netbsd-7.  any ideas?
