My friend and I tried to upgrade the firmware on his AlphaStation 200.  
When we tried a "show device" it outputted the floppy, scsi controller,
harddrive, ethernet card and 8 cdrom drives (dka200..dka207).  There is
only one cdrom drive in the machine.  

This may or may not be related to us not being able to upgrade the
firmware.  Whenever we type "boot dka20*" (we tried them all), it just
said that the block wasn't 512 bytes.

Incidentally, is there a freebsd-alpha boot floppy that I can download?
The redhat boot floppy that we made didn't work.  We followed the
instructions but it was unable to mount the / vfs.
